The Minnesota Twins had to overcome a big game from Detroit designated hitter Bill Ford to leave Target Field with a victory. And they did, winning 6-5. Ford went 2 for 4 with a home run. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Adam Wood notched his 1st save in 1 chances. Minnesota now has a 3-game win streak.

Kevin Howard had a key at-bat with two out in the bottom of the fourth for Minnesota. With the bases loaded and the Twins leading 5-2, he drew a walk, driving in 1 run.

"I just try to go out and give it 100 percent every game," Howard told a local reporter after the game. "That's my mantra, and like today, it will pay off more often than not."
