Twins Wiggle Past Detroit, 3-2
The Detroit Tigers went down to defeat to Roy Welmaker and his Minnesota teammates. The final score was 3-2, Twins, in 14 innings. The victory makes Minnesota 12-18.

It could have been a different outcome for Minnesota, had it not been for Harmon Killebrew, the 24-year old first baseman . Killebrew contributed a solo home run in the top of the second inning to put Minnesota up, 2-0.

Killebrew called the extra-inning win a "confidence builder."
