Twins sweep Rangers behind Polanco

August 18, 2019 By Minnesota News Network

TWINS 6, RANGERS 3

Jorge Polanco cleared the bases with a tiebreaking triple in the eighth inning, helping Minnesota to its first-ever four-game sweep of Texas.

Polanco hit a two-out liner to the gap in right-center field off Emmanuel Clase (0-2). Minnesota maintained a 2+-game lead over Cleveland in the AL Central.

Reliever Sam Dyson (5-1) allowed Shin-Soo Choo’s tying homer in the seventh but escaped further damage. Taylor Rogers struck out Rougned Odor looking as the potential tying run in the ninth for his 19th save in 25 chances.
