Rays Bang Out 8-5 Win Versus Minnesota
Minnesota right fielder Avisail Garcia had a terrific game, but it still wasn't enough to get his team a win. Garcia was 2-4 with a home run. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3, even as Tampa Bay beat the Twins, 8-5. Garcia was named the player of the game despite the loss. Tampa Bay reliever Darren O'Day picked up the win, bumping his record to 2-1. Joe Kelly was collared with the loss. Mychal Givens converted his 2nd save in 3 tries.

Tampa Bay took a 4-3 lead on Zack Cozart's 6th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Cozart hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Minnesota pitcher Joe Kelly shaking his head.

"We'll relax tonight and enjoy this win," said Cozart.

Tampa Bay, at 30-29, occupies second place in the American League East Division.
