Twins Beat Royals, 6-2
|
The Minnesota Twins scooped up a win at Target Field, dumping the Kansas City Royals, 6-2. Walter Johnson, who is tied for 2nd in the AL in innings pitched with 175.0, was essential to his team's success. Johnson picked up the win for Minnesota, going 6 innings. He gave up 2 runs on 5 hits. He now sports a record of 10-8. The last-place Royals have lost 4 straight games.
Third Baseman Cecil Travis made an impact for Minnesota, when he swatted a run-scoring double off Booker McDaniel in the bottom of the fourth. For the contest, Travis was 1-4 with a double.
Said Minnesota manager : "At the end of the day, these guys have to perform between the lines, and I think they did."
