Brooks Lee hit a two-run single off Jordan Hicks in the bottom of the ninth inning to give the Minnesota Twins a 5-4 victory over the Boston Red Sox after a 90-minute rain delay

The Red Sox suffered an utterly brutal loss in Minnesota on Monday... and had to wait through a 90-minute ninth-inning rain delay to do so.

Brooks Lee hit a walk-off, two-run single in the bottom of the ninth inning, lifting the Minnesota Twins to a 5-4 win over the Boston Red Sox on Monday night in Minneapolis.

Jordan Hicks was ready to pitch the ninth, but had to wait out wind and rain. When the game resumed 90 minutes later, he, predictably, wasn't sharp.

So far, they’re hanging in, despite the Rafael Devers trade, the Kristian Campbell demotion, the early Trevor Story struggles or similar scuffling from Walker Buehler.

The Red Sox will likely call up a fresh arm to take Richard Fitts’ roster spot on a temporary basis before Tuesday’s game. The more pressing question is who will fill his rotation spot permanently.

Sánchez allowed two-run homers in the third and fourth innings, one of them coming from Chicago's Luis Robert Jr., a potential trade deadline target.
