Polanco Slugs Twins to 4-3 Win
The 4-3 Minnesota win over Tampa Bay was due largely to Jorge Polanco. The Twins shortstop belted 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice. The winning pitcher was Randy Dobnak. His record is now 3-4. The right-hander went 6.1 innings, allowing 2 runs on 3 hits for the Twins. Taylor Rogers was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 10 of 11 save opportunities.

Polanco contributed in the bottom of the fourth. With a runner on 1st, he hit a 2-run home run. It was one at-bat among others that helped Minnesota get the win.

Polanco called the win "a collective effort."

Minnesota occupies 4th place in the American League Central Division at 28-33.
