Minnesota right fielder Jason Duren played a vital role in his team's 4-1 conquest of Pittsburgh. He was 4 for 4 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for Minnesota. The winner in relief was Tommy Waterbury. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 2 hits in 2 innings. He now owns a record of 3-1. Carlos Mella picked up his 12th save of the season.

With Minnesota leading 1-0 in the bottom of the fifth, Duren hit a splitter from Monte Acosta for a solo home run. It was his 11th home run of the season and put the Twins ahead, 2-0.

"Winning is contagious," said Duren. "We're looking forward to the next game."

By defeating Pittsburgh, the second-place Twins improved to 45-35.
