Surez drives in 2 and Williamson pitches into the 6th as Reds beat Twins 2-1
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) --- Eugenio Surez hit a two-run double, Brandon Williamson
allowed one run in 5 1/3 innings and the Cincinnati Reds edged the Minnesota
Twins 2-1 on Friday night.
Williamson (2-1) gave up three hits, struck out two and walked four. Emilio
Pagn pitched a 1-2-3 ninth for his sixth save.
Twins starter Joe Ryan (2-2) allowed two runs --- one earned --- and three hits
and had six strikeouts in six innings.
Josh Bell had two of Minnesota's five hits --- all singles. The Twins went 0
for 4 with runners in scoring position and left nine runners stranded.
With the game scoreless in the fourth, Elly De La Cruz doubled on a line drive
to the warning track and advanced to third when Sal Stewart reached on a
throwing error by third baseman Ryan Kreidler. After Stewart stole second,
Surez doubled to center to give Cincinnati a 2-0 lead.
Brooks Lee, Kreidler and Byron Buxton walked to load the bases in the fifth.
Lee scored on a sacrifice fly by Austin Martin to make it 2-1, but Williamson
got Luke Keaschall to ground into an inning-ending 5-4-3 double play.
Williamson also struck out Keaschall with the bases loaded to end the third.
