New York Upended, 3-0, by Minnesota
Minnesota got a first-rate effort from pitcher Cole Sands, who frustrated New York hitters en route to a 3-0 Twins triumph at Yankee Stadium. Sands, the winner, moves to 5-5. He threw 5 innings of 1-hit ball, while fanning 4 and giving up 4 walks. Jhoan Duran closed the door for Minnesota, picking up his 30th save of the year.

Minnesota relied on the bat of Matt Wallner to get the win. The designated hitter produced a 2-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Twins ahead, 2-0. For the game, Wallner had 1 double and 1 home run in 4 at-bats.

"We didn't score," said losing manager Aaron Boone. "That was the problem."

The Twins now own a record of 71-84.
