Sisler Helps Twins Beat Rockies, 12-11
Good production from first baseman George Sisler helped the Minnesota Twins topple the Colorado Rockies, 12-11. Sisler was 3-5 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 2 times and driving in 4 for the Twins. Minnesota pitcher Randy Myers got the win, upping his record to 2-1. Fred Gladding got the loss. Getting the save was Ralph Comstock, his 21st.

In the top of the eighth, the Twins grabbed the lead when Sisler hit his 17th double of the season. The run-scoring double off Fred Gladding made it 10-9, Minnesota.

Colorado manager Constantine Peters said he was disappointed with the loss. "Whenever you score that many runs, you expect to win the game."

The Twins, at 32-24, lead by one game in their division.
