Cruz Hits 2 home runs in Twins Win
|
The Minnesota Twins did just enough to secure a victory over the Kansas City Royals, 6-5, at Target Field. Nobody did more than designated hitter Nelson Cruz. Taylor Rogers notched his 15th save in 16 chances. The 4th-place Twins go to 42-51.
In the bottom of the sixth, Minnesota right fielder Max Kepler gave his team the lead. With one out and a runner on 1st, Rozycki hit his 14th home run of the year. Kansas City pitcher Kevin McCarthy surrendered it. With that, the Twins jumped in front, 4-3.
"It's nice to come out on top today," said Cruz.
