					| Twins Lose to Yankees, 7-2 |  
					| The New York Yankees beat the Minnesota Twins, 7-2. New York pitcher and Mobile, Alabama, native Nate Ciccarelli led the way. Ciccarelli got the win, improving to 4-8. He allowed 3 hits and walked 2 over 7 innings. Ciccarelli allowed 2 runs. New York is now 82-65, 2½ games up in the American League East Division. 
 The Twins had been locked in a 2-2 tie with the Yankees going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 31-year old second baseman  Jarrod Joyce came to the plate. Joyce hit a grand slam home run on a 2-2 fastball from Minnesota hurler Adam Wood. It was Joyce's 2nd home run of the year.
 
 "We'll enjoy this win," said Joyce. "But there's more we hope to accomplish."
