Cardinals Lose, 5-2, at Metrodome
Minnesota and St. Louis duked it out at Metrodome and the Twins came out victorious.

The Minnesota Twins topped the St. Louis Cardinals by the score of 5-2, with the largest share of the credit going to designated hitter Frank Thomas. Thomas went 3-3 with a double, 2 singles, and a walk. He drove in 4 runs for the Twins. Pat Combs was the winning pitcher. Over 7 innings, he allowed 2 runs on 4 hits, with 1 walk and 7 strikeouts. Rob Dibble earned his 21st save in 30 chances.

One critical moment came with one down in the top of the ninth. With runners on 1st and 2nd and the Cardinals trailing 5-2, Rob Dibble retired John Jaha with a good fastball. Jaha struck out.

Minnesota currently is in 5th place in the Federal League Central Division at 62-81.
