After a fast start, the Twins needed a hot finish to beat the Tigers. It didn’t happen. The Tigers earned a 7-2 win over the Twins Wednesday night to go up three games in the American League Central race.
Another One Bites The Dust: Twins Lose Again to Tigers, 7-2
Magglio Ordonez had three runs batted in for the Tigers. Those came in the fifth inning when he doubled with the bases loaded. Brandon Inge and Ramon Santiago also had two RBIs a piece in the win.
The Twins had the baserunners, but couldn’t put them across. The team stranded a combined 19 baserunners, but had just two runs to show for it — both of which came in the first.
One game is left between the two teams. They’ll square off again Thursday at 1 p.m. ET, which you can watch on MLB Network.
