Astros Lose By a Run at Minnesota, 5-4
The Minnesota Twins did just enough to secure a victory over the Houston Astros, 5-4, at Target Field. Nobody did more than pitcher Casey Jones. Andrew Kindig recorded the save, his 1st. Minnesota, with the win, sits at 24-53.

Minnesota second baseman Miguel Gonzalez contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the fifth. With two down, he hit a knuckle curve into right-center field for a 2-run single. It was his 65th hit of the season and put the Twins ahead, 5-2.

"Casey was able to execute his pitches," said Minnesota manager Jorge G Twins. "Simple as that."
