The home crowd had a good time watching the Detroit Tigers and Minnesota Twins get after it.

The Minnesota Twins defeated the Detroit Tigers, 8-2, at Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome. Marco Padilla, who is tied for 10th in the AL in home runs with 28, was a standout performer for Minnesota. His 3 hits included 2 singles and 1 double -- this in addition to the 1 run he scored and 3 he knocked in. Brooks Brown picked up the win with 5 innings of work. He allowed 2 runs on 3 hits, while walking 2 and striking out 6. On the season, he is now 10-6.

Ray Durham, who led the AL in triples with 16 in 1998, chipped in a 2-run home run for Minnesota in the bottom of the fourth. For the game, the second baseman had 2 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 RBI.

Said losing manager Vandelay Tigers: "The at-bats, obviously, needed to be better."

Minnesota is now 82-75, while Detroit is 71-86.
