The Minnesota Twins topped the Chicago White Sox, 2-1, in American League action at Target Field. The game was highlighted by the performance of Minnesota pitcher Kenta Maeda. The winner was Minnesota reliever Zack Littell, now 6-1. The loser was Reynaldo Lopez. The victory gives Minnesota a record of 77-65.

Alex Kirilloff drew 1 walk for Minnesota. The 22-year old right fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With two out and the bases loaded, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring walk off Reynaldo Lopez. It was his 2nd walk of the season.

"There was no wiggle room in this one," said Maeda.
