MINNEAPOLIS – The Cincinnati Reds keep finding painful ways to lose games on their road trip.
They couldn't hold onto a two-run lead in the 10th inning and stranded the bases loaded in the 12th. They failed to capitalize on their bullpen pitching five scoreless innings before Monday's game went into extras.
It all resulted in a walk-off loss to the Minnesota Twins. Slugger Miguel Sanó provided the heroics with a walk-off, two-run homer against Heath Hembree in the 12th inning to hand the Reds a 7-5 loss at Target Field.
The painful part for the Reds is everything it took to reach extra innings.
