Arizona Diamondbacks (52-50) 0 0 0 1 0 2 0 0 0 3 7 0

Twins Lick Diamondbacks, 6-3
Norm McLaughlin knocked in 3 runs to help Minnesota beat Arizona, 6-3. The Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania native tallied 1 single and 1 home run. Joe Merritt notched his 21st save of the season. Minnesota is now 45-58.

There was more than one reason the Twins beat the Diamondbacks, but McLaughlin's big at-bat in the bottom of the third was an important factor. He staked his team to a 2-0 lead when he hit a 2-run single.

"Some wins are easy and some are difficult, but either way we come to the ballpark ready to work hard every day," McLaughlin told the Minnesota Chronicle.
