Minnesota Gets Riveting Walk-Off Win
Starting pitcher Huascar Ynoa pitched well enough to help the Minnesota Twins beat the Kansas City Royals, 4-3. The loss makes Kansas City 27-26.

Greg Watts was the walk-off hero for Minnesota. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Twins shortstop hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Huascar was bobbing and weaving the whole game," said Minnesota manager Robin Ventura.
