Twins Win, 6-2
The 6-2 Minnesota (GCL) win over Baltimore (GCL) was due largely to Dave MacCaw. The Twins second baseman went 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. With this game in the books, Minnesota (GCL) is 14-9, Baltimore (GCL) 9-14.

Minnesota (GCL) won the game in part because of Orkut Erkan. The left fielder ripped a solo home run in the top of the first inning to put the Twins ahead, 1-0. For the game, Erkan had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"I like winning," MacCaw told the Minnesota (GCL) Herald. "I may joke around, but when it comes down to it, winning is the most important thing."
