Twins SS Ruiz goes 4-for-5 in Win
In the 10-8 Minnesota win over Boston, the impact of Manny Ruiz was substantial. Ruiz, who finished 5th in the AL in triples with 7 in 2041, went 4-5 with a home run and 3 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Ginjiro Motohara earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 3 hits in 1.1 innings. He upped his record to 2-9. Dan Lenart earned the save for Minnesota, his 22nd.

Minnesota used the clutch hitting of Omar Cordova to capture the win. The center fielder drilled a run-scoring double in the top of the ninth inning to give the Twins the lead, 7-6. For the game, Cordova had 1 single and 1 double in 5 at-bats.

"I do my best to contribute," said Cordova.

The last-place Twins own a record of 43-92.
