Kirby Puckett had a big 2-run home run for the Twins in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Minnesota leading 1-0 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a slider from 25-year old right-handed pitcher Dick Bosman and punished it. The result was his 3rd home run of the season, which put the Twins on top, 3-0.

"Roy was in tempo tonight," said Minnesota skipper .
