Not Quite: Twins Score One In Ninth, Fall Short 6-5

It was closer than it originally promised: After going down by five runs early, and falling behind a very impressive Justin Verlander, the Twins put a series of runs together in the later innings to push the Tigers to the limit. But “close enough to be entertaining” isn’t quite close enough, at least not for Twins fans, as the loss means the Twins will again fall to two games behind the Tigers in the A.L. Central.
