Minnesota Pins 7-1 Loss on Houston
Houston had trouble with Minnesota starter Walter Johnson, who frustrated Astros hitters, as the Twins cruised to victory, 7-1, in Game 2 of the Round 1. The Twins now hold a 2-0 advantage in the best-of-7 series, thanks in large part to the right-handed Johnson, who controlled Houston throughout the contest and threw 7.2 innings of 3-hit ball.

Johnson, the Minnesota right-hander, went 7.2 innings, allowing 1 run on 3 hits. He collected 7 strikeouts.

"We haven't stopped playing," Houston manager said. "We didn't get this far to give up."

The next game is set to be played for Monday, September 22nd , 2014 at Target Field in Minneapolis.
