MILWAUKEE, June 23 (UPI) -- Casey McGehee socked a three-run homer and Rickie Weeks added a solo shot Tuesday in the Milwaukee Brewers' 7-5 inter-league win over Minnesota.

McGehee's fourth-inning blast erased an early 3-0 Twins advantage and pitcher Chris Narveson (6-4) singled home the go-ahead run later in the frame as the Brewers improved to 12-19 at Miller Park.

Weeks' homer raised Milwaukee's lead to 6-3 and Jim Edmonds went 3-for-4 with two runs scored for the victors.

Narveson lasted five innings, allowing three runs. John Axford notched a two-inning save after Minnesota scored a pair of runs off Todd Coffey in the eighth.

Twins starter Scott Baker (6-6) was touched for five runs in six innings.

Justin Morneau and Delmon Young each had two hits and a drove in a pair of runs for Minnesota.
