3-2 Win Gets Minnesota to 80-54
|
The Minnesota Twins had to overcome a fine performance from Houston pitcher António Velásquez to grab a 3-2 win at Minute Maid Park. Velásquez allowed 3 runs over 6.1 innings. Víctor Ortega earned the save, his 25th. Minnesota is in second place in the American League Central Division with a record of 80-54.
Ignacio Chávez, the 27-year old center fielder , had a direct impact on the outcome. Chávez contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the second inning to put Minnesota up, 3-1.
"Bottom line," said Houston skipper Shane Callahan, "we didn't play well enough to win."
