Twins Get Thrilling 8-7 Win
Target Field played host to some exciting baseball.

The Minnesota Twins outlasted Kevin Jackson and the Texas Rangers, 8-7. Jackson was impressive in the loss. The Texas pitcher threw 7.0 innings of 1-hit ball. The Twins, now 63-61, have won 5 in a row.

The decisive blow was delivered by Rick Torrez in the bottom of the tenth when he hit a 2-run home run off 30-year old right-handed pitcher Eric Dodson to win the game for Minnesota. The home crowd went nuts.

"The crowd was raucous," said Torrez.
