Twins, Foster Blast Mets, 10-1
|
The exploits of first baseman Geoffrey Foster, who leads the AL in total bases with 306, helped the Minnesota Twins defeat the New York Mets, 10-1. Foster was 3-5 with 2 home runs and a double, while adding 5 RBI and scoring twice. Minnesota has now won 4 straight, while the Mets have lost 3 in a row.
Minnesota used the bat of Leandro Vargo to get the win. The left fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Twins ahead, 4-0. It was his lone hit in 2 at-bats, but it did its damage.
"Good hitting and good pitching is a lethal combination," said Foster.
