Strong bullpen effort wasted as Blue Jays fall to Twins
Carlos Correa's eighth-inning grand slam home run spearheaded the Minnesota Twins' 9-4 comeback win over the Toronto Blue Jays on Saturday.
Correa belted his second career bases-loaded home run into the first row in left field to give the visiting Twins a second straight win in the three-game set against the Blue Jays.
Correa's homer came off reliever Adam Cimber (0-2), who managed one strikeout against the seven batters he faced. With an outpouring of jeers from the 41,990 at Rogers Centre, Cimber was replaced by Mitch White, who surrendered the Kepler blow.
Cimber and White wiped out a solid seven innings from Trevor Richards, Tim Mayza and Bowden Francis.
