Walker Slugs Twins to 11-6 Win
Minnesota right fielder Larry Walker was instrumental in his team's 11-6 win over the Texas Rangers. Walker, who is on pace for 131 RBI this season, went 2-3 with 2 runs scored to lead the offensive attack for the Twins. The last-place Rangers have lost 4 straight games.

In the bottom of the first, Walker had one of his most important at-bats: a 2-run home run off Bret Saberhagen that staked the Twins to a 2-0 lead.

Walker said his wife shared good advice with him before the game. "She said, 'Don't allow this game to make you mad.' When I thought about it, I realized this is just a game. I was able to relax at the plate."
