Twins Claim 2-0 Win
The Minnesota Twins and Toronto Blue Jays put on a pitchers' duel.

Minnesota Twins starter Bert Blyleven turned in an exceptional performance against the Toronto Blue Jays at Target Field, resulting in a Minnesota win, 2-0. Minnesota, now 31-32, holds down second place in the American League Central Division.

Minnesota took a 2-0 lead on Chuck Knoblauch's 2nd home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Knoblauch hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Toronto pitcher Scott Downs visibly frustrated.

"I managed to get ahead of guys and keep them at bay," said Blyleven.
