Toros Score 3-2 Win Over Minneapolis
Tucson second baseman Max Speed picked up 3 ribbies while helping his team beat back the Minneapolis Vikings, 3-2. Greg Sams earned his 2nd save, after closing out the game. Minneapolis has now lost 4 in a row.

Tucson took a 3-0 lead on Speed's 19th home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which he hit off Katsuo Nozawa in the top of the sixth, propelled Tucson to the win.

"That's baseball," said Minneapolis manager Ace Cooan. "Sometimes the other team plays better than yours."
