Twins Saddle Royals with 3-2 Loss
In baseball, each game is unique. This one was no different.

The Minnesota (SS-A) Twins topped the Kansas City (SS-A) Royals, 3-2, in Northwest League action at Lancaster Grounds. The game was highlighted by the performance of Minnesota (SS-A) pitcher Carlos Sierra. Minnesota (SS-A) reliever Manny Montana picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. Mario Caballero was saddled with the loss. Jon Perkins earned the save, his 3rd, for the Twins.

The Twins got a big at-bat from designated hitter Greg Howard. For the game, Howard went 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. In the bottom of the first, with a runner on 2nd, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 4th home run of the season gave Minnesota (SS-A) a 2-0 lead.

"I was a little disappointed," said Kansas City (SS-A) manager Nick Belzer. "We could've and should've scored more runs."

The 'W' lifts Minnesota (SS-A)'s record to 16-25.
