The Minnesota Twins beat the Kansas City Royals, 11-10, at Target Field. Minnesota center fielder Mike Yastrzemski had an outstanding performance. He went 4 for 4 with a home run, 2 doubles, and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 4. With the win over Kansas City, the Twins improved to 25-30.

The decisive blow was delivered by Matt Carpenter in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a 2-run home run off 29-year old right-handed pitcher Ryan Helsley to win the game for Minnesota. The home crowd went nuts.

"It was a nice win for our side today," said Twins manager Jonathan A. "Not perfect, but we'll take it."
