The Minnesota Twins topped the Boston Red Sox, 5-3, in American League action at Fenway Park. The game was highlighted by the performance of Minnesota pitcher Walter Johnson.

In the top of the first, Kirby Puckett delivered a clutch hit. With two gone and runners on 1st and 2nd, the Minnesota left fielder hit a run-scoring single, putting the Twins in front, 5-3.

"A confident pitcher is a dangerous thing," said Minnesota manager . "That's what Walter is right now."
