Twins 6-3 Victors Over Orioles
Minnesota beat Baltimore on the strength of starting pitcher Jose Ramos's fine effort. The right-hander led his team to a win, 6-3. Ramos yielded 3 runs over 7 innings to notch the win. He scattered 4 hits, walked 3, and struck out 4. His record improves to 9-7. The Twins improved their record to 70-64 by beating Baltimore.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Roberto Torres? The Minnesota center fielder had a run-scoring double in the top of the third inning to put the Twins on top, 2-0. For the game, Torres had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

Torres attributed the win to "concerted effort and focus."
