Mays limits Mays to seven hits in 4-0 complete game
Joe Mays scattered seven hits in his first complete game since 2002, guiding the Minnesota Twins past the Toronto Blue Jays 4-0. Michael Cuddyer delivered a bases loaded two-run double in the sixth, and Mike Redmond added a two-run single. Mays improved to 3-1 with a strong sinker showing, the breakout after elbow surgery.
