Las Vegas Athletics (68-61) 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4 0
Minnesota Twins (67-62) 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 X 1 6 0
Twins Earn 1-0 Win Versus Athletics
The Twins grabbed a win, 1-0, at Target Field, overcoming a fine effort from Las Vegas pitcher Daulton Jefferies. Jefferies went 7 innings and allowed no runs. The win belonged to Alejandro Hidalgo in relief. His record improves to 7-2. Jason Foley took the loss for Las Vegas. Minnesota, at 67-62, occupies second place in the American League Central Division.

Had Luke Keaschall not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 3rd, Keaschall hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 1-0, in favor of the Twins.

"There was no wiggle room in this one," said Keaschall.
