Twins Cut Down Pirates, 3-1
|
Minnesota pitcher Joel Kull had a large part in his team beating the Pittsburgh Pirates, 3-1. The right-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. Tim Brockman earned the save for Minnesota, his 2nd. The second-place Twins lifted their record to 38-40.
Eric Hemphill, who finished 5th in the AL in batting average with .309 in 2105, chipped in a solo home run for Minnesota in the bottom of the fifth. For the game, the right fielder had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 1 run batted in.
"We didn't string enough hits together to win the game," said tight-lipped Pittsburgh manager Merlyn Evans. "Obviously."
