Twins Capture Close Win
St. Louis got a terrific performance from pitcher Seth Jackson, but it wasn't enough to beat the Minnesota Twins. Minnesota won the Busch Stadium contest, 3-2. Jackson threw 7.0 innings of 3-hit ball for the losing team. Adrian Tipton, credited with the win in relief, is now 5-6. He allowed 1 run on 1 hit in 1 innings. The save went to Carlos Mella, his 14th this season.

Minnesota used a timely hit from Matt Hughes to get the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Twins ahead, 2-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"There's a lot of good karma around our club," said winning manager Chris Greuling.

The second-place Twins have won 6 straight.
