Twins Win, Now 25-15
The Atlanta Braves got a superb performance from pitcher Bruce Esparza. Still, it wasn't enough to beat Minnesota. The Twins won the game, 5-1. Esparza threw 5.2 innings of 4-hit ball. Getting the save was Steve Evans, his 1st. The win gives Minnesota a season record of 25-15.

Chris Kennedy went 1-3 with a double and a walk for Minnesota. The 28-year old second baseman had a key at-bat in the bottom of the sixth. With two out and the bases loaded, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring walk off Bruce Esparza. It was his 12th walk of the season.

Kennedy attributed the win to "a well-rounded effort by the whole team."
