Twins Rally to Eke Out Win
|
The Minnesota Twins had to overcome a good performance from Kansas City pitcher Russ Ortiz to claim a 3-2 win at Metrodome 1994-2009. Ortiz went 7 innings and allowed 2 runs. Mike Myers, 5-2, earned the win in relief. He allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.2 innings. The win elevated the Twins to 65-65.
The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the tenth inning, when Minnesota first baseman Travis Hafner, facing Byung-Hyun Kim, had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. It gave the Twins the 3-2 win.
"If you pitch well, you give yourself some opportunities," said Minnesota manager Frank Minnesota.
