Twins Lose Late, 6-5
|
The Minnesota Twins got a sterling performance from left fielder Joe Looby, but the Tampa Bay Rays still prevailed, 6-5. Looby hit 2 home runs, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. Tampa Bay reliever Antonio Quevedo was credited with the win, to go to 1-2. Matt Gromaski took the loss for Minnesota. Todd Curley earned save number 18 this season.
The game was at a stalemate until shortstop Ryan Takach came to bat in the top of the ninth. Facing Minnesota pitcher Matt Gromaski, he hit a full count fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Tampa Bay on top, 5-4.
"We'll kick back tonight and enjoy this win," said Takach.
The last-place Rays raised their record to 40-53.
