Twins Rally For Late Win Over Rangers
Carlos Rodón, who finished 2nd in the AL in strikeouts with 255 in 2016, propelled his team to victory over the Texas Rangers. The final score was 5-4, Minnesota. Tejay Antone, the 3rd overall pick in the 2019 draft, was the winner in relief. His record is now 2-5. The losing pitcher was Ty Buttrey. The Twins sport a record of 39-72.

The decisive blow was delivered by Ty France in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a solo home run off former first round draft pick Ty Buttrey to win the game for Minnesota. The home crowd went nuts.

"Carlos was in tempo tonight," said Minnesota skipper .
