Twins Get Plucky, 9-8 Win Over Athletics
The Cincinnati Twins battled the Kansas City Athletics into extra innings before the outcome was decided. The Twins won it, finally, 9-8, in 10 innings. In the game, Cincinnati second baseman Marco Escutia went 2-4 with a triple and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. The winner was Manchu Gao in relief. His record improves to 1-0. Gavin Jorjadze took the loss. The Twins go to 24-32, putting them third in the Eastern Conference Rex Rawnsley Division.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the tenth. With one out, Escutia hit a changeup from Gavin Jorjadze for a run-scoring single. The Twins, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"He who laughs last laughs best," Escutia said, postgame.
