Minnesota left fielder John Kruk was sensational. He went 4-4 with a triple, 3 singles, and a walk. But it wasn't enough to rally his team to a win. Milwaukee beat the Twins, 9-2. Milwaukee pitcher Mike LaCoss earned the win, hiking his record to 3-1. Bob Knepper suffered the loss. Minnesota falls to 14-10.

Milwaukee third baseman Randy Ready produced at a critical juncture. It happened in the top of the eighth with Roger Erickson on the mound and Milwaukee leading 3-2. Ready drew a walk, driving in 1 run.

"We came out aggressive," said Brewers manager Tony Bartirome. "We came out swinging the bats."
