Twins Sneak Past Astros, 5-4
The Minnesota Twins defeated the Houston Astros, 5-4, at Minute Maid Park today. Leading the charge for Minnesota was first baseman Ricardo Batista. He was 4-6 with a home run, a triple, and 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Minnesota is now 30-21, while Houston is 24-28.

Batista had a game-changing triple in the top of the 12th. On a full count fastball from Bill Dillard, he banged a run-scoring triple to right-center, giving the Twins a 5-4 lead. It was the 8th triple of the year for Batista.

"I like our moxie," said Twins manager Jorge G Twins.
