Twins Get 6-2 Win Versus Chicago
A nice crowd turned out for a clash between the Minnesota Twins and Chicago Cubs.

Minnesota Twins starter Zebby Matthews was locked-in. He led his team to a win over the Chicago Cubs, 6-2. In 7 innings, Matthews surrendered 4 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 2. He allowed 2 runs.

It could have been a different outcome for Minnesota, had it not been for Matt Wallner, the 29-year old right fielder . Wallner contributed a 2-run single in the top of the fourth inning to put Minnesota up, 2-0.

"If you beat me, you beat me, if not, good things will happen," said Matthews.

With this game in the books, Minnesota is 42-38, Chicago 32-50.
