					| Yankees Sneak By Twins, 6-5 |  
					| The New York Yankees trumped the Minnesota Twins, 6-5, at Yankee Stadium. New York right fielder Adriaan Pieters was terrific. He was 2 for 5 with a home run. He scored 2 runs. New York reliever Isaias Chavez picked up the win, upping his record to 2-1. Adam Wood shouldered the loss. At 76-66, New York is in 4th place in the American League East Division. 
 Jason Peck drew 2 walk for New York. The four-time All-Star  had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With one out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he broke a 5-5 tie with a run-scoring  ground out off Adam Wood. It was his 60th RBI of the season.
 
 "Winning never gets dull," said Pieters.
