The Minnesota Twins bested the Boston Red Sox by a score of 6-4, with left fielder Domingo Santana getting the main credit. On the day, Santana was 2 for 4 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for the Twins. Chris Stratton picked up the win, improving his season record to 2-2. He struck out 7 in 6 innings. Victor Arano was called on to finish, recording his 1st save.

Making an impact for the home team was Michael Chavis. In the bottom of the sixth, the 24-year old second baseman had a run-scoring walk. That made the score 6-4, Twins.

"We'll keep playing hard and let the chips fall where they may," said Minnesota manager Al Wehr.

The Red Sox, now 11-18, continue their poor start.
