6 Straight Wins for Twins
Minnesota rode a decent outing from starter Tanner Scott to victory over the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field. The final score was 5-3. Scott, now 3-0, was the winner. In 6 innings, he gave up 6 hits, while striking out 4, walking 1, and allowing 2 earned runs. The second-place Twins have won 6 in a row.

Minnesota relied on the bat of Freddie Freeman to get the win. The first baseman ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Twins ahead, 2-0. For the game, Freeman had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"We put it together today and came out with the win," Scott said in postgame remarks. "That's the main thing."
