Twins Upend Royals, 3-2
|
Minnesota Twins starter Brandon Waddell turned in an exceptional performance against the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium, resulting in a Minnesota win, 3-2. Waddell, the winner, moves to 2-3. He threw 5 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 4 and giving up 2 walks. Nick Anderson, credited with the save, is now 32 for 34 in save opportunities.
Edwin Encarnacion, the 37-year old first baseman , had a direct impact on the outcome. Encarnacion contributed a 2-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put Minnesota up, 3-0.
"We had a good game plan," Waddell said, "and we were able to execute it."
The Twins now have a record of 76-86 with the win over Kansas City.
