ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Kyle Garlick is almost always a sure bat against left-handed pitchers, and he proved that yet again in the Twins' 9-1 victory Saturday at Tampa Bay.
Garlick smashed a career-high two home runs against Rays starter Shane McClanahan at Tropicana Field to help the Twins improve to 12-9 and even the series. The Twins have won eight of their past nine games. The Rays fell to 12-9.
Garlick's shots are more impressive considering McClanahan accumulated 11 strikeouts in his five innings.
