The Minnesota Twins topped the Los Angeles Angels by the score of 9-6, with the biggest share of the credit going to first baseman Freddie Freeman. Freeman was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double. He drove in 5 runs and scored once for the Twins on the day. Nick Pivetta picked up the win, improving his season record to 4-5. He struck out 6 in 6 innings. David Robertson converted his 6th save in 6 tries.

Roberto Perez had a clutch at-bat with one out in the bottom of the sixth for the Twins. Coming up with a runner on 2nd and Minnesota trailing 5-4, he hit a 2-run home run.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Perez said.

Minnesota is 4th in the American League Central Division with a record of 24-39.
