New York Drops Minnesota, 8-5
The 8-5 New York win over Minnesota was due largely to Cesar Cedeno. The Yankees first baseman went 2 for 5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3. Allen Ripley got the win, improving to 2-1. He held the Twins to 5 runs on 5 hits over 5.2 innings, while striking out 2 and walking 5. Bill Caudill, summoned from the bullpen, notched his 8th save.

Early in the game, right fielder Rusty Staub had a run-scoring double for New York. It was his 9th double of the season and put the Yankees on top, 1-0.

"The name of the game is scoring runs," Staub said. "We did a good job of that today."

The win gives the Yankees a record of 12-10.
