Twins 9-5 Losers to Tampa Bay
The rain could not dampen the enthusiasm of Tampa Bay fans at Jon Nunez Sr. Stadium.

Minnesota left fielder Billy Hinson had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 9-5, to Tampa Bay at Jon Nunez Sr. Stadium. Hinson was 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and was hit by a pitch. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Eddie Melendez was the winner. He's now 4-5. The loser was Curt McMahon.

Dan Wimmer had a big 2-run home run for the Rays in the bottom of the fifth inning. With Tampa Bay trailing 4-3 and a runner on 3rd, he sized up a curveball from Curt McMahon, who is tied for 10th in the AL in quality starts with 10, and punished it. The result was his 20th home run of the season, which put the Rays on top, 5-4.

"We had some nice at-bats at the right time," said Rays manager Kyle Delgado.

Tampa Bay is now 38-58.
