Twins Pull Out Late-Game Win, 2-1
Anthony DeSclafani pitched a gem to lead Minnesota to victory over the Boston Red Sox, 2-1. The Red Sox drop to 7-10, as their stumbling start to the 2026 season continues.

The decisive blow was delivered by Francisco Mejia in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a 2-run double off 28-year old right-handed pitcher Terence McCray to win the game for Minnesota. The home crowd went nuts.

"I tried to mix it up, keep them off balance," said DeSclafani.
