Twins Beat Royals, 4-2
Minnesota starter Bud Puffer pitched well against the Kansas City Royals at Target Field. The right-hander led his team to a win, 4-2. Puffer, the winner, moves to 6-9. He threw 7 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 3 and giving up 1 walk. Andrew Kindig picked up the save for Minnesota, his 2nd of the year.

The Royals had been locked in a 2-2 tie with the Twins going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That changed quickly when the 26-year old right fielder Peer Derks came to the plate. Derks hit a run-scoring triple on a first pitch splitter from Kansas City hurler John Hall. It was Derks's 3rd triple of the year.

"I liked his command," said Minnesota manager Jorge G Twins. "Bud was throwing strikes."

Minnesota, with the win, sits at 26-55.
