Saved from getting swept: Rays 7, Twins 5 (F/10)

The Rays and Twins face off one last time in the finale of this weekend’s three-game series. Drew Rasmussen takes the mound against Twins starter Joe Ryan.

The Twins struck early after Byron Buxton hit a solo home run in the bottom of the first, but Taylor Walls responded with a solo shot of his own in the top of the third. In the bottom of the third, Joe Boyle, who was called up from Triple-A Durham this morning, entered in relief of Rasmussen, who pitched two strong innings in an opener role.

The right Walls!
