Boccasino Shines in 6-5 Minnesota Win
|
Minnesota left fielder Leonardo Boccasino helped his team beat the Texas Rangers, 6-5. Boccasino went 2 for 4 for the Twins. Picking up the save was Mel Tseng, his 2nd. Minnesota has a record of 70-63, placing them third in the American League Central Division.
Boccasino had a timely hit for Minnesota in the top of the sixth. With Texas trailing 4-3, he turned a first pitch forkball into a 3-run home run. It was his 19th home run of the season, making it 6-4, Minnesota.
"It's still just a game," said Boccasino, "whether you win or lose."
