Tavarez Stars for Twins in 8-3 Win
Tony Tavarez was a vital contributor to the 8-3 Minnesota victory over Toronto. The Twins left fielder was 3-4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4. Mike Ramsey earned the win for Minnesota. He lasted 8 innings, allowing 3 runs on 5 hits, while striking out 3. With the win, he raised his record to 3-3. The last-place Twins are now 48-85, the Blue Jays 46-89.

Minnesota grabbed the momentum in the bottom of the fifth, when Tavarez, who finished 5th in the AL in on-base percentage with .388 in 2036, hit a run-scoring double. His 25th double of the season put the Twins out in front, 3-2.

"There are times you get yourself out and there are times you come through," Tavarez said. "That's how it goes."
