Minnesota Beats New York (A), 6-3
The 6-3 Minnesota win over New York (A) was due in large part to Manny Trillo. The Twins second baseman was 4-4 with 4 singles and a walk. Earl Francis, the winning pitcher, improved to 12-5. He pitched 8 innings, giving up 6 hits and 3 runs, while striking out 4 and walking 1. The victory gives Minnesota a record of 62-57.

The Twins got a big at-bat from designated hitter Keith Miller. For the game, Miller was 1-5 with a home run, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. In the bottom of the fifth, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 11th home run of the season gave Minnesota a 4-3 lead.

Miller attributed the win to "everyone pulling their weight."
