Santiago Hits 2 home runs in Twins Win
The Minnesota Twins defeated the New York Yankees, 9-3, in American League action at Yankee Stadium 1976. Benito Santiago pulled his weight. The 13-year veteran went 3-4 with 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Greg Swindell earned the win for Minnesota. He lasted 6.1 innings, allowing 2 runs on 7 hits, while striking out 6. With the win, he raised his record to 2-1. With the win, Minnesota improves its record to 13-9.

Minnesota used the timely hitting of Wilton Guerrero to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Twins on top, 4-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"This team keeps racking up the wins," said Twins manager Bill Benson.
