The Minnesota Twins got a magnificent performance from pitcher Josh Rayburn, who muffled the Kansas City offense en route to a tight, 2-1 Twins win at Target Field. Brady House earned the save for Minnesota, his 9th of the year. The win hiked the Minnesota record to 17-16.

The Twins got an important contribution from designated hitter Victor Acosta, who in the bottom of the third knocked a first pitch slider to left for a solo home run. It was his 2nd home run of the season and put the Twins ahead, 2-0.

"Josh's not intimidated by who's stepping into the batter's box," said Minnesota manager Don R.
