The Minnesota Twins have tight-roped the possibility of losing three games in a row all season, but haven’t actually suffered that fate over the first three months. On Tuesday night in Oakland, the Twins were knocking on the door of a three-game streak, but once again they were able to avoid it.
After falling behind 3-0, the Twins rallied and when Mitch Garver drove in Byron Buxton in the top of the 12th, Minnesota was able to come out on top and pick up a 4-3 win over the Athletics. The win also kept the Twins’ lead over the Cleveland Indians in the American League Central at seven games.
