Outfielder Aaron Hicks pitched the ninth inning for the Angels, giving up Jeffers's two-run homer.
The Twins loaded the bases three batters into the game but scored just once on Kepler's walk. Alex Kirilloff, Julien and Trevor Larnach each drove in runs in the second inning for a 4-0 lead.
Santana had an RBI double in a three-run third inning and hit a three-run homer in the fourth for a 10-4 lead.
Adell’s third home run of the season for the Angels, a two-run shot, came in the second inning. He added an RBI single in the third.
Kepler hit a home run in the sixth inning and Julien had a two-run double off the top of the wall in left-center during a three-run seventh.
