Athletics Rally to Nose Past Minnesota
The game between Las Vegas and Minnesota is in the books, despite a little rain.

The Las Vegas Athletics weathered an outstanding game by Minnesota right fielder Renzo Gonzalez to topple the Twins, 8-7. Gonzalez was 1-2 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs. Sam Hentges earned his 26th save in 29 chances.

Gage Workman came through with a big-time hit for Las Vegas. The shortstop smacked a grand slam home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 8-6. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"We swung the bats good throughout the lineup," said Las Vegas skipper Jeff Eyrich.

The third-place Athletics improved to 69-61.
