Royals Fall Short at Minnesota, 6-5
|
Good production from designated hitter Jay Bruce helped the Minnesota Twins topple the Kansas City Royals, 6-5. Bruce was 2 for 2 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 for the Twins. Colin Poche earned the win after being called from the bullpen. The left-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 1.2 innings. He upped his record to 1-1. The win for the Twins raised their record to 21-18.
Teoscar Hernandez had a key at-bat with one out in the bottom of the sixth for Minnesota. With the bases loaded and the Twins leading 4-3, he drew a walk, driving in 1 run.
"It wasn't our best performance," said Bruce, "but a win in this league is nothing to sniff at."
