The Minnesota Twins defeated the New York Yankees, 6-3, in American League action at Target Field. Minnesota pitcher Chris Sale had a standout performance. Sale picked up the win for Minnesota, going 5 innings. He gave up 1 run on 4 hits. He now sports a record of 4-1. Jhoan Duran earned the save for Minnesota, his 8th.

The Twins got an important contribution from designated hitter Jorge Polanco, who in the bottom of the first punched a 0-1 changeup into right for a 2-run triple. It was his 2nd triple of the season and put the Twins ahead, 3-0.

"I tried to mix it up, keep them off balance," said Sale.

The Twins improved to 25-18.
