Cubs Upend Twins, 11-2
The exploits of third baseman Pat Kelly, who is tied for 10th in the NL with a .398 on-base percentage, helped the Chicago (N) Cubs defeat the Minnesota Twins, 11-2. Kelly went 2 for 2 with 2 triples and was hit by a pitch. He scored 3 times and drove in 2. The winning pitcher was Dean Chance. He tossed 105 pitches over 7 innings, allowing 2 runs on 5 hits. The Twins drop to 10-16, as their fitful start to the 2001 campaign continues.

Chicago (N) won the game in part because of Matt Williams. The shortstop ripped a solo home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Cubs ahead, 2-0. For the game, Williams had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

Minnesota manager Dan Hornbaker summed up his team's performance in one word: "Pathetic."
