A nice crowd turned out for a clash between the Minnesota Twins and California Angels.

Getting an impressive start from Rick de Leon, Minnesota beat California by the score of 5-1. Even with the win, the Twins have a dismal 30-69 record.

The Twins got a big at-bat from designated hitter Akanori Togashi. For the game, Togashi was 1 for 3 with a home run, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. In the bottom of the fourth, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 3rd home run of the season gave Minnesota a 2-0 lead.

In postgame comments, de Leon told the Minnesota Today: "Do people still doubt I give 100 percent?"
