Twins Saddle Indians with 9-4 Loss
Minnesota and Cleveland got after it at Cleveland Stadium.

The Minnesota Twins defeated the Cleveland Indians, 9-4, at Cleveland Stadium. Kirk Ordway was a standout performer for Minnesota. His 3 hits included 1 single and 2 doubles, in addition to the 2 runs he scored and 1 he knocked in. The win gives the Twins a record of 37-95.

It could have been a different outcome for Minnesota, had it not been for Paul Konerko, the former first round draft pick . Konerko contributed a 2-run single in the top of the sixth inning to put Minnesota up, 4-2.

"Good win for us," said Ordway. "We'll strap it on and go after the next one."
