Minnesota Draws First Blood in World Series With 5-3 Win
The Minnesota Twins powered past the hometown San Francisco Giants, 5-3, in the opener of the World Series at AT&T Park today. Minnesota first baseman Wilson Mendoza was 2 for 3 with a home run, a double, and a walk for the hosts. The Twins now lead the series 1-0.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for R.J. Jones? The Minnesota catcher had a 2-run single in the top of the sixth inning to put the Twins on top, 5-3. For the game, Jones had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

Jones called the win "a team effort."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at AT&T Park in San Francisco.
