Twins Come Back Late, Nip Royals
The Minnesota Twins managed to get by the Kansas City Royals, 5-4, at Metrodome. Minnesota left fielder Kal Daniels took player of the game honors. Minnesota reliever Scott Ruskin picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. Kevin Brown absorbed the loss. Rob Dibble notched his 11th save in 15 chances.

One important at-bat for Minnesota came with no one out in the bottom of the eighth inning. With the bases empty, Daniels hit a solo home run, which contributed to the Twins win.

Daniels told a Minnesota News reporter that he was "satisfied" with the win.

Minnesota, at 37-55, sits in 5th place in the Federal League Central Division.
