Twins Overwhelm Rangers, 15-5
The Minnesota Twins beat the Texas Rangers, 15-5, at Globe Life Field. Norm Siebern went 2 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 3 runs and drove in 3. The former first round draft pick was a menace to Texas all day. With the win, the Twins hiked their record to 40-39.

Minnesota used a clutch at-bat from Jose Offerman to capture the win. The first baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Twins ahead, 3-1. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Minnesota manager Dan Hornbaker.
