Twins Win 7-5 Walk-Off
In the 7-5 Minnesota win over Oakland, the impact of Edgar Vasquez was substantial. Vasquez, who is on pace for 102 RBI this season, belted 2 home runs, while adding 6 RBI and scoring twice. Mark Lowe, credited with the win in relief, is now 3-0. He allowed no runs on no hits in 1 innings. The win for the Twins lifted their record to 22-21.

The game was decided with two out in the bottom of the ninth. With Minnesota trailing 5-4, Vasquez jumped on a fastball from 30-year old right-handed pitcher Mal Winters and hit a 3-run home run to left. With one swing, the Twins had a walk-off win.

"This stadium was a-rockin'," said Vasquez.
