Rays Take Down Twins, 3-2
The Tampa Bay Rays faced a tough opponent in Minnesota pitcher Brandon Pfaadt, but still scratched out a win at Tropicana Field by a final score of 3-2 in 10 innings. Pfaadt went 8 innings and allowed 2 runs. The win went to Yennier Cano in relief, making him now 3-0. Jose Alvarado took the loss for Minnesota. The Rays sport a record of 19-34.

The defining moment came in the bottom of the tenth for Tampa Bay. That's when George Springer hit a solo home run off 30-year old left-handed pitcher Jose Alvarado to win the game. The home crowd went wild.

"It's nice to step up when your team needs you," said Springer.
