The Minnesota Twins defeated the Kansas City Royals, 8-2, in American League action at Kauffman Stadium. Minnesota pitcher Jack Overbeek had a standout performance. Overbeek got the win, improving to 9-8. He allowed 3 hits and walked 3 over 6.1 innings. Overbeek allowed 2 runs. Minnesota now owns a record of 71-91.

Minnesota used the timely hitting of Bran Stark to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Twins on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"I'm just happy to help the team win," Overbeek told the Minnesota Gazette.
