Minnesota beat Kansas City at Kauffman Stadium, eking out a 6-5 win. The win was due in large part to left fielder Luke Keaschall. He went 3-4 with a home run and a double. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Åke Piechnik earned the win, while 29-year old right-handed pitcher Hunter Greene took the loss for Kansas City. Minnesota bumps their record to 33-20 with the win.

Minnesota used the hitting of Renzo Gonzalez to pick up the win. The right fielder clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Twins on top, 6-1. For the game, Gonzalez had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"They beat us fair and square," Kansas City skipper Patrick Ochs said.
