Twins Lose Late, 3-2
Kansas City beat Minnesota on the strength of starting pitcher Scott Bowling's fine effort. The right-hander led his team to a win, 3-2. Kansas City reliever Dallas Roden picked up the win to move to 3-1. Adrian Tipton suffered the loss. Getting the save was Ryan Washington, his 9th.

The game was at a stalemate until first baseman Alex Baeza came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Minnesota pitcher Adrian Tipton, he hit a 2-1 cutter for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Kansas City on top, 3-2.

"What we get, we earn," Baeza told the Kansas City Herald.

The Royals are now 19-21.
