Brooks Lee’s Shocking Walk-Off Bunt Sends Twins Past Rays in Stunning Finish
Lee didn’t enter the game until the seventh inning, pinch-hitting for Trevor Larnach against the left-handed Mason Montgomery. He flied out on his first at-bat, but made good with the same platoon advantage in the ninth. It’s his second walk-off hit of the year, his first being a more traditional single on May 24.
It was also the Twins’ second straight game with a walk-off, having won on a Harrison Bader solo shot on Friday.

The win improves the Twins’ record to 43-46, still good for second place in the AL Central. They remain 3.5 games back for the third wild-card spot in the AL, currently held by the Seattle Mariners, and 12 games back from the league-best Detroit Tigers.
