The Minnesota Twins showed their resilience against the Tampa Bay Rays, battling back twice from one- and two-run deficits, only to falter at the end, losing 7-5 in a hard-fought game on Sunday. A highlight for the Twins was Harrison Bader's thrilling two-run homer in the eighth inning that tied the game and sent it into extra innings. However, the team couldn’t overcome a three-run deficit in the 10th inning, as Justin Topa allowed a double and made a costly error.

Prior to the late-game drama, the Twins initially took the lead with a home run from Byron Buxton. Joe Ryan pitched solidly, striking out eight while allowing just two runs over six innings. Trevor Larnach's aggressive slide contributed to a run, tying the game again in the sixth. Unfortunately, the late-game collapse overshadowed a promising performance by the Twins, resulting in a disappointing loss.
