Twins Drop 5-3 Decision
Ron Pruitt was a major factor in the 5-3 New York win over Minnesota. The Yankees left fielder was 3 for 4 with a double and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. New York bumps their record to 49-37 with the win.

Pruitt had an important at-bat with runners on 2nd and 3rd in the bottom of the sixth, when he hit a run-scoring single. The Yankees went on to win.

"I still think this team can play even better," Pruitt told the New York Times.
