Twins use a seven
DETROIT (AP) — The Minnesota Twins took advantage of a based-loaded walk, a three-run error by Tigers third baseman Zach McKinstry and a three-run homer by Matt Waller in the 12th inning to beat the Detroit Tigers 11-5 in the first game of Saturday’s doubleheader.
After both teams scored once in the 11th, Detroit reliever Alex Lange (0-1) walked Willi Castro to start the 12th and Christian Vázquez bunted, but first baseman Spencer Torkelson’s throw to third was late, loading the bases.
Lange walked Austin Martin to make it 5-4. Kyle Farmer and Carlos Santana struck out, but Ryan Jeffers hit a grounder to third that went through McKinstry’s legs for a three-run error.
McKinstry then replaced Lange, walked Manuel Margot and allowed a long homer to Wallner.
Jorge Alcala (1-0) got the win after allowing a run in the 12th.
Tigers starter Kenta Maeda allowed two runs - one earned - on five hits in six innings against his old team. He struck out five without walking a batter.
