Twins Win, Now 71-60
Minnesota Twins starter Bailey Ober was in a rhythm all game. He led his team to a win over the Oakland Athletics, 4-1. The winning pitcher was Ober, now 10-10. He tossed 6 innings of 3-hit ball, while walking 1 and fanning 4. The win puts the Twins at 71-60, while the Athletics drop to 61-70.

The Twins took the lead in the bottom of the second when Willi Castro banged a two-out single. Minnesota had been trailing 1-0, but Castro hit a 2-0 fastball from Ken Waldichuk for a 2-run single.

"It takes a lot of things to win a ballgame," said Minnesota manager Jim Double Dip #1. "It's usually not just one thing."
