With first baseman Rory Knapp leading the charge, the Minnesota Twins defeated the New York Yankees, 5-4, at Target Field. Knapp was 3-4 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Minnesota reliever Jeff Clark was the winner. His record is now 3-2. The losing pitcher was Tim Glover. The Twins, at 34-36, sit in third place in the American League Central Division.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the 12th. With no one out, Knapp hit a circle change from Tim Glover for a solo home run. The Twins, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"This place went bonkers at the end," Knapp said.
