Twins Beat San Francisco, 4-3
The Minnesota Twins did just enough to secure a victory over the San Francisco Giants, 4-3, at AT&T Park. Nobody did more than pitcher Jon Meger. Getting the save was Jeff Downing, his 2nd. Minnesota goes to 17-11.

Minnesota relied on the hitting of Jim Whitlock to pick up the win. The second baseman ripped a 2-run triple in the top of the ninth inning to put the Twins on top, 4-2. For the game, Whitlock had 1 triple and 1 single in 3 at-bats.

"Piling up wins will eventually take us to the promised land," said Meger.
