Twins Win at New York, 5-2
Minnesota Twins starter Matt Harvey was in a groove as he led his team to a win over the New York Yankees, 5-2. David Robertson locked down his 4th save. The Yankees fall to 12-12 and continue their uneasy start to the 2018 season.

Early in the game, designated hitter Kendrys Morales had a solo home run for Minnesota. It was his 4th home run of the season and put the Twins on top, 1-0.

"That's the key at this level, throwing strike one," said Harvey. "Successful pitchers do it."
