Abreu’s moon shot grounds Twins, 6-4

Holy man, listen, we were not expecting this at all.

Sure, Minnesota is reeling after their first-half fire, but between the rough start to this game for the Chicago White Sox and the fact that the Twins have played better baseball all season long made this decisive, 6-4 win a surprise.

And that a key point of execution — what ended up as the decisive run — came in the seventh inning, when Yolmer Sánchez took a called strike, fouled four straight balls off, then bunted an eye-level pitch straight back to pitcher Kyle Gibson for a suicide squeeze par excellence.
