Twins Victors, 4-2, at Kansas City
|
The inspired effort of Kansas City third baseman Antonio Alvarez was not enough to prevent a loss, 4-2, to the Minnesota Twins. Alvarez went 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 doubles. He scored 2 times. To call the performance of the 4-18 Royals woeful so far is an understatement.
Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Nate Carpenter? The Minnesota second baseman had a run-scoring double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Twins on top, 3-2. For the game, Carpenter had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.
"This level of focus will win us a lot of ballgames," Carpenter said after the game.
