Gorman Thomas finally hit his first home run of the season, but it couldn't have come at a better time.

MINNEAPOLIS — What a start to May!

Through seven innings, the Brewers’ offense was lifeless. The Crew’s boppers were at the mercy of Twins starter Brad Havens.

Through seven innings, the Brewers managed only three hits and six total baserunners.
