Twins Collect 4-3 Win Over Orioles
The Minnesota Twins had to overcome a fine effort from Baltimore pitcher Lennart Hjelm to grab a narrow 4-3 win at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Hjelm went 6 innings and allowed no runs. The win was credited to Bryce Schimmoeller in relief. His record improves to 5-2. Alan Taylor took the loss. The American League Central Division-leading Twins have a record of 65-39.

Minnesota used a clutch hit from Alex Rodriguez Jr. to get the win. The shortstop drilled a solo home run in the top of the tenth inning to put the Twins ahead, 4-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a doozy.

After the game, Minnesota manager Jorge G Twins applauded the team's effort. "They busted their tails out there," he said.
