Yankees Win at Minnesota, 8-3
A good performance from first baseman Albert Pujols helped the New York Yankees defeat the Minnesota Twins, 8-3. Pujols went 3-4 with a double, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 3 times for the Yankees. The winning pitcher was former first round draft pick Chris Carpenter. He tossed 109 pitches over 7.2 innings, allowing 3 runs on 13 hits. John Russ, credited with the save, is now 2 for 2 in save opportunities.

New York used a well-timed hit by Kosuke Fukudome to capture the win. The right fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Yankees ahead, 3-0. Though it was his only hit in 5 at-bats, it was important.

Fukudome attributed the win to his team's "focus and intensity."

With the win, New York has a record of 63-57. Minnesota falls to 55-63.
