Minneapolis — They don't come any stranger than the Tigers' 5-4 loss to the Twins Tuesday night on a chilly night at Target Field.
The Tigers had valiantly taken a 4-3 lead in the top of the eighth on a three-run homer by Javier Báez. But by the time closer Gregory Soto took the mound in the bottom of the ninth, the temperature had dipped below 40 degrees and the wind had picked up.
Soto, who had been perfect, three for three in his save chances this season, threw eight straight balls, putting two runners on.
