The Minnesota Twins defeated the Philadelphia Athletics, 9-8, at Shibe Park. Minnesota catcher Dave Watkins had a superb performance. He was 1-2 with a home run and 2 walks, while scoring 3 and driving in 3. Minnesota currently is in 6th place in the AL at 16-20.

The game was at a stalemate until designated hitter Larry Howard came to bat in the top of the ninth. Facing Philadelphia pitcher Sean Doolittle, he hit a 2-0 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Minnesota on top, 9-8.

"We need to string a few more wins like this one together," said Watkins.
