Yandy Díaz's RBI double starts 3-run 10th for Rays in 7-5 win over Twins

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Yandy Díaz doubled in the go-ahead run in a three-run 10th inning, and the Tampa Bay Rays beat the Minnesota Twins 7-5 on Sunday to avoid a three-game sweep.

Díaz drove in automatic runner Danny Jansen on a 2-1 pitch from Justin Topa (1-3). Díaz scored when Topa threw wild to first on a sacrifice bunt by José Caballero, who scored on a sacrifice fly by Junior Caminero.

Harrison Bader, whose two-run pinch-hit homer off Mason Montgomery in the eighth tied it at 4-all, drove in automatic runner Byron Buxton with a groundout in the bottom of the 10th off Eric Orze, who finished for his third save.

Pete Fairbanks (4-2) got five outs for the win. Joe Boyle allowed two hits and an unearned run in five innings in relief of opener Drew Rasmussen.

Buxton drove Rasmussen's second pitch of the game to left field for his 20th homer.

Taylor Walls led off the third against Joe Ryan with his third homer. Ryan allowed two runs in six innings while striking out eight.

Jose Aranda had three hits and drove in two runs for the Rays.

Caminero broke a 2-2 tie with a fielder's choice on a swinging bunt in the eighth, and Aranda followed with an RBI infield hit for a 4-2 lead.

Boyle entered in the third and had two on with one out but struck out Trevor Larnach and Carlos Correa to keep it tied.

Five of Buxton’s 14 career leadoff homers have come this season.

The Rays begin a three-game series at Detroit on Monday. Neither team has announced a starter.

The Twins will start RHP Simeon Woods Richardson (4-4, 4.41 ERA) on Tuesday for the first of three against the visiting Cubs, who haven't announced a starter.

MOSCOW (AP) — A Russian general was killed Monday morning after an explosive device detonated underneath his car in southern Moscow, investigators said.

Lt. Gen. Fanil Sarvarov, head of the Operational Training Directorate of the Russian Armed Forces' General Staff, died from his injuries, Svetlana Petrenko, official spokesperson for Russia’s Investigative Committee, said.

“Investigators are pursuing numerous lines of enquiry regarding the murder. One of these is that the crime was orchestrated by Ukrainian intelligence services,” Petrenko said.

Russian news outlets reported that a car exploded in a parking lot on Moscow's Yaseneva Street with the driver inside at approximately 7 a.m.

Ukraine’s security service claimed responsibility for a similar attack against a high-ranking Russian soldier in December 2024. Lt. Gen. Igor Kirillov, the chief of the military’s nuclear, biological and chemical protection forces, was killed by a bomb hidden on an electric scooter outside his apartment building a day after Kyiv leveled criminal charges against him. His assistant, Ilya Polikarpov, was also killed.
