It also marked the fourth straight game with a homer for Longoria, who hit a game-tying solo homer in the sixth before connecting on a go-ahead homer in the eighth. He became the first player in Rays history to homer in every game of a four-game series, while also setting the franchise mark for homers in a series with five. Morrison, who hit a solo shot in the second and a two-run blast in the fourth, also homered for the third straight game. Tampa Bay homered 11 times in the four-game series to set a team record.
Byung Ho Park, Robbie Grossman and Nunez homered for the Twins, while Joe Mauer had an RBI single and Byron Buxton went 3-for-4 with an RBI triple.
