Minnesota pitcher Walter Johnson did his part in helping his team beat the Boston Red Sox, 10-3. The right-hander kept opposing batters from doing too much damage. The Twins, at 68-57, sit in second place in the American League Central Division.

Josh Gibson, who is tied for 4th in the AL in bases on balls with 58, aided the Minnesota cause with a run-scoring walk in the top of the fourth. For the game, the designated hitter was 1 for 5 with a double and a walk. He drove in 3 runs.

"We put it together and came out with the win," Gibson said in postgame remarks. "That's the main thing."
