Camilo Pascual tossed a complete game as the powerful Minnesota Twins beat the
New York Yankees by a score of 3 to 1.
Minnesota came up with 2 runs in the 6th inning. The key offensive moment was
provided by Lenny Green who quieted the home crowd when he bombed a two-run
dinger. Both teams totaled 6 hits on the night.
The victory was credited to Pascual(15-1) who went the distance, allowing 1
run. Rollie Sheldon(0-7) was the loser. He allowed 5 hits and 1 walk in 6
and 2/3 innings.
