Carpenter Swats 2 Homers, Twins Top Red Sox, 6-1
|
The Minnesota Twins cut down the Boston Red Sox by the score of 6-1, with the largest share of the credit going to first baseman Matt Carpenter. Carpenter slugged 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice for the Twins. The winning pitcher was 31-year old right-handed pitcher Adrian Houser. He tossed 90 pitches over 6 innings, allowing 1 run on 6 hits. The Twins, now 73-82, have won 4 in a row.
The Twins got a big at-bat from third baseman Patrick Wisdom. For the game, Wisdom was 1-3 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2. In the top of the first, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 20th home run of the season gave Minnesota a 2-0 lead.
Wisdom said his team "played with determination."
