Twins Deal Tigers 2-1 Loss
In a low-scoring clash between Minnesota and Detroit, pitcher Greg Keels was a difference-maker. The right-hander earned accolades in the 2-1 win. The winner was Joel Ford in relief. His record improves to 5-2. Chris Evans took the loss. Vinny McFarland earned the save, his 11th, for the Twins.

Minnesota used the timely hitting of Steve Masters to capture the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Twins on top, 2-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but he made it count.

"We made a couple of mistakes," said Detroit skipper Reinaldo Ruiz, "and it cost us."

The Twins, at 31-58, sit in last place in the American League Central Division.
