Twins Walk Off with 4-3 Win
|
The Minnesota Twins sent the home crowd home smiling from Metrodome.
Cincinnati got a terrific performance from pitcher Mac Suzuki, but it wasn't enough to beat the Minnesota Twins. Minnesota won the Metrodome contest, 4-3. Suzuki was the player of the game despite being on the losing side. He threw 6 innings allowing 3 runs. Minnesota reliever John Rocker picked up the win to move to 5-2. Doug Henry suffered the loss.
The game was at a stalemate until second baseman Brent Gates came to bat in the bottom of the tenth. Facing Cincinnati pitcher Greg Mathews, he hit a 1-1 slider for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Minnesota on top, 4-3.
"Exhilarating win," said Gates.
Minnesota has a 3-game win streak, while Cincinnati has lost 9 in a row.
