MINNEAPOLIS — Jonny DeLuca's line-drive single to center field in the 10th inning and a strong throw from center fielder Jose Siri to complete a double play in the bottom half of the inning helped Tampa Bay overcome a squandered four-run lead in a 7-6 victory over the Minnesota Twins. Ninth-inning home runs by Jose Miranda and Carlos Santana had erased a 6-2 deficit before DeLuca connected on reliever Griffin Jax's sinker to score the automatic runner and give the Rays the lead for good. Tampa Bay improved to a Major League-best 26-11 in games decided by two runs or fewer.
