Twins\u2019 starter Simeon Woods Richardson allowed the four runs, capped off by a two-run homer from Yandy Diaz. Woods Richardson worked four-and-a-third innings and fell to 0-4 on the year. The bullpen worked the rest of the game without allowing a Tampa Bay run. Minnesota\u2019s two runs came on a Brooks Lee homer in the seventh inning. The Twins have dropped nine of their last ten games and are now 12-16 on the season. Third-place Minnesota is still only two-and-a-half games behind first-place Cleveland in the American League Central Division. Tampa Bay improved to 16-11 on the season and sits in second place in the A-L East. Minnesota welcomes Seattle to town to start a three-game series tonight at Target Field.
