Red Sox Come Back on Twins

RED SOX 6
TWINS 5

The Red Sox came back from a 5-2 deficit in the eight inning to beat the fisty Minnesota Twins 6-5, Tuesday Night at Fenway Park.

The win moves the Red Sox closer to the Tampa Bay Rays, who are now on a two game losing streak.

Minnesota grabbed a 3-0 lead, when Brendan Harris trippled in Delmon Young and Craig Monroe .

It was 5-2 Twins in the eighth until the Red Sox stormed back. J.D. Drew sacrified a ground ball to bring home Jacoby Ellsbury. Manny Ramirez homered to deep left to tie the game at five, later Brandon Moss won the game with a single to center to score Kevin Youklis.

Boston is now three games out of first place, and lead the Twins for the Wild Card by three games. Photo is of Brandon Moss.
