Twins Take Down Tigers, 5-4
Both teams had their chances, but the Minnesota Twins eventually prevailed.

The Minnesota Twins did just enough to sneak past the Detroit Tigers, 5-4, at Comerica Park. Minnesota shortstop Jesse Scott, in particular, had a standout performance. Mario Arce earned his 18th save in 23 chances.

Minnesota used a timely hit from José Molina to get the win. The catcher stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Twins ahead, 5-4. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"Nice to tuck this win away," said Molina.

Minnesota, with the win, sits at 34-96.
