MINNEAPOLIS — Nelson Cruz homered in his return to Minnesota and the Tampa Bay Rays moved to a season-high 26 games over .500 with a 10–4 win over the Twins on Friday night.
In his next at-bat, Cruz sent a line drive into the left-field seats for his 24th home run of the season and fifth for the Rays. The homer prompted another ovation from the crowd. Cruz finished 2 for 4 with a walk and two runs scored. “We’re putting up a lot of runs, and when you’re doing that it takes more than just one guy,” Rays manager Kevin Cash said. “We have a lot of guys doing real special things at the plate.”
The Rays matched the 1929 New York Giants. With two games left in the series, they have a chance to equal the record of nine straight by the 1930 Philadelphia A’s.The Twins threatened in the sixth inning as Miguel Sanó’s second RBI single of the game pulled them to within 6-3. But with the tying run at the plate, McClanahan struck out Trevor Larnach on three pitches. Then, reliever Matt Wisler came on and got Ryan Jeffers to hit into a double play to end the inning.
