Twins Overwhelm Royals, 14-5
Landon Schaefer left his imprint on the 14-5 Minnesota win against the Kansas City Royals. Schaefer, who finished 3rd in the AL in hits with 179 in 2029, was 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 3 times and driving in 4. The win was credited to 34-year old right-handed pitcher Taylor Floyd in relief. His record improves to 2-0. Mason Barnett took the loss. Minnesota is now 58-65, Kansas City 54-69.

The Royals had been locked in a 5-5 tie with the Twins going into the bottom of the eighth inning. That changed quickly when the 29-year old left fielder Emmanuel Rodriguez came to the plate. Rodriguez hit a run-scoring double on a 0-2 slider from Kansas City hurler Mason Barnett. It was Rodriguez's 25th double of the year.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Rodriguez told the Minnesota Daily News. "It's as simple as that."
