Clutch Hitting Delivers Win for Twins
Dave Orr led Minnesota to a win over Baltimore. The final score was 9-7. Orr scored 2 times, going 4 for 5. He also knocked in 1 RBI. Roger Nelson earned the win after being called from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed 2 runs on 3 hits in 2 innings. He upped his record to 2-0. Glen Perkins converted his 24th save in 30 tries.

Minnesota used the timely hitting of Julio Cruz to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Twins on top, 9-7. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Minnesota manager Jeff Patterson.

The 4th-place Twins sport a record of 72-77.
