Tigers Dealt 5-3 Loss by Minnesota
Minnesota rode a decent outing from starter Eric Erickson to victory over the Detroit Tigers. The final score was 5-3. Erickson went 8 innings to notch the win. He scattered 7 hits, walked 1, and struck out 7. His record improves to 1-2. Glen Perkins converted his 12th save in 16 tries.

Had Byron Buxton not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Buxton hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 3-2, in favor of the Twins.

In postgame comments to the Minnesota Today, Buxton said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."

Minnesota is now 40-45.
