Koopman K's 10 En Route to 3-0 Twins Win
Minnesota turned a good effort from starter Joe Koopman into a win over the Chicago White Sox at Guaranteed Rate Field. The final score was 3-0. Amari Burg earned the save, his 10th, for the Twins. Minnesota, at 13-4, is off to a blistering start.

Koopman, who dominated for Minnesota, earned the victory to move to 4-0. He was in control the whole game, scattering 2 hits over 8 innings, while striking out 10. Chicago batters could never bunch up enough hits to produce a rally.

Koopman attributed the win to "energy and focus on the part of everyone."
