					| Twins Edge Royals, 2-1 |  
					| The Minnesota Twins did just enough to secure a victory over the Kansas City Royals, 2-1, at Target Field. Nobody did more than third baseman Yonetoshi Muranaka. Luis Sanchez, the winning pitcher, is now 1-1. He went 5 innings, allowing 1 run on 6 hits, while fanning 1 and walking 0. Earning his 8th save of the year was  Mario Arce. 
 In the bottom of the third, Minnesota second baseman Kevin Bellman had a productive at-bat. With  runners on 1st and 2nd and two out, Bellman stroked a run-scoring  single to center. It made the score 2-1, Minnesota. For the game, he went 1 for 4.
 
 "We faced good pitching and still got it done," said Bellman.
 
 The loss has the Royals at 15-16.
