The Minnesota Twins defeated the Boston Red Sox, 4-3, in American League action at Target Field. Minnesota pitcher Shawn Cummings had a standout performance. Jorge Fajardo sewed up the save, his 5th. The Red Sox, 7-9, continue their poor start to the 2026 campaign.

Andy Townsend hit a run-scoring double off Tristan Robinson in the bottom of the seventh, which put the Twins in front, 4-3. In addition to the double, Townsend had 1 single, while going 2 for 4.

"Enjoyed this one," Townsend told the Minnesota Herald. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
