Twins Fall Short, 1-0, at Tampa Bay
The Minnesota Twins and Tampa Bay Rays provided some drama for the home crowd.

In a low-scoring game between Tampa Bay and Minnesota, pitcher Jeffrey Springs was excellent. The Tampa Bay left-hander helped his team knock off the Twins, 1-0. Springs went 6.1 innings to notch the win. He scattered 3 hits, walked 2, and struck out 6. His record improves to 8-6. Earning his 38th save for Tampa Bay was Mason Montgomery.

The Rays got a big at-bat from right fielder Josh Lowe. For the game, Lowe was 1-4 with a double. In the bottom of the fourth, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a run-scoring double. His 28th double of the season gave Tampa Bay a 1-0 lead.

Lowe told a Tampa Bay Herald reporter that he was "more than satisfied" with the win.

The win puts Tampa Bay at 77-61 this season.
