Jhoan Duran picked up his 18th save of the season in the victory.
Carlos Santana hit a three-run homer in the fifth inning that lifted the Twins to another narrow victory, beating the Texas Rangers 4-3 Friday night in at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas.
Sands came back out for the seventh inning and gave up a single to Leody Taveras, and while he was caught stealing second on a great throw from Jeffers to Julien, he allowed Marcus Semien to reach when he failed to tag first base on a ground ball, resulting in an error. Steven Okert then came on in relief and struck out Corey Seager before getting former Twins Robbie Grossman to line out.
The Rangers got within 4-2 on Semien’s 359-foot solo homer in the fifth inning, one of just three hits and two runs Woods Richardson allowed across five innings of work for the Twins . Woods Richardson also fanned one in his start and improved to 4-3 on the season with the win.
