Minnesota Beats Tampa Bay, 13-6
Minnesota shortstop Paul Dejong made his presence felt in the 13-6 Twins triumph over the Tampa Bay Rays. Dejong was 2-4 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3. Taijuan Walker picked up the win with 6 innings of work. He allowed 4 runs on 10 hits, while walking 0 and striking out 4. On the season, he is now 9-10. The last-place Twins are now 60-79, the Rays 45-94.

Minnesota second baseman Kevin Newman contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the first. With two down, he hit a sinker to left field for a 2-run single. It was his 137th hit of the season and put the Twins ahead, 3-0.

"Nice to tuck this win away," said Newman.
