Games Notes

Twins rally in the 9th to beat the Red Sox 6-4.

Joe Mauer's 3-run HR in the 9th caps a 4-run rally lifting Minnesota as the Twins overcome a pair of 2-run deficits. Boston strikes for 2 runs in the bottom of the 8th after Minnesota erases a 2-0 deficit.

But Jamey Carroll singles home a run to pull the Twins within 1, and Mauer powers a blast the opposite way to put them in front. Ben Revere collects 3 hits, extending his hitting streak to 18 games and scores the go-ahead run on Mauer's shot.
