MINNESOTA TWINS AT OAKLAND ATHLETICS
GAME ID: 659 - SATURDAY, APRIL 7TH , 2046 - GAME LOG
  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Minnesota Twins (1-5) 0 1 2 0 1 1 1 1 0 7 10 0
Oakland Athletics (5-2) 2 0 2 0 0 1 1 4 X 10 13 1
Kawachi Leads Athletics to 10-7 Win Over Twins
No one was more impactful than Muneo Kawachi in the 10-7 Oakland win over Minnesota. Kawachi went 3-4 with a home run, a triple, and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 2. The loss has the Twins at 1-5.

Had Jorge Bernal not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Bernal hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 8-7, in favor of the Athletics.

"We'll savor this win," Kawachi told the Oakland Citizen, "then get ready for the next game."
