Game 114: Tampa Bay 7, Minnesota 3

They lost again today, their fifth in a row. Needless to say, they were swept in a 3 game series by the Devil Rays. Diamond picked up a no decision, Burnett took the loss. Morneau hit a 2-run homer, his 16th and Span injured his shoulder on a sprawling attempt at a catch in short [...]
