Twins Win in Extras
The Minnesota Twins scored a 4-3 win versus the Detroit Tigers at Target Field. Minnesota pitcher Jason Hammel nabbed top player honors in the tight contest. Even with the win, the Twins have a dismal 15-31 record.

The game was at a stalemate until left fielder Whit Merrifield came to bat in the bottom of the 14th. Facing Detroit pitcher Will Smith, he hit a 2-2 fastball for a run-scoring double. It was a game-changer, putting Minnesota on top, 4-3.

In postgame comments, Hammel said, "I think we gave the fans their money's worth."
