Royce Lewis hits walk-off triple as Twins rally past Royals 3-2 after Buxton
exits with sore hip
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) --- Royce Lewis hit a two-run triple with two outs in the
bottom of the ninth inning to give the Minnesota Twins a 3-2 victory over the
Kansas City Royals on Tuesday night.
Taj Bradley threw six strong innings for the Twins (54-54), who have won three
in a row and five of six. They are third in the AL Cental, just two games
behind the first-place Chicago White Sox.
Kody Clemens doubled for Minnesota in the fourth and scored on Josh Bell's
single. But center fielder Byron Buxton left in the fifth with right hip
soreness after running to first base. It's the same joint that caused him to
miss the All-Star Game this month.
Kansas City went ahead 2-1 in the sixth when Josh Rojas stole home on the front
end of a double steal and Salvador Perez had an RBI single.
