Walk Off Error

The Twins and the Athletics played an extra-inning slugfest, the Athletics coming back to tie the game with a run in the bottom of the ninth, then down 12-10 in bottom of the tenth, score three runs without the aid of a hit. With the initial placement runner on second and two outs, two walks load the bases, then a fielding error by the Twins second baseman Travis Blankenhorn allows one run in, and a throwing error by the Twins third baseman Luis Arraez allows the final two runs to score. The Athletics win their eleventh game in a row 13-12.

The teams combined for seven home runs accounting for eleven runs.
