Twins Get Extra-Inning, 2-1 Win
The Minnesota Twins earned a close win over the Houston Astros, thanks in part to Vince Rutgers. The Minnesota right-hander played a key role in the 10-inning, 2-1 victory. Minnesota pitcher Jonathan Tucker got the win, upping his record to 1-0. Tony Nunn got the loss. The loss drops the Houston record to a disappointing 5-9.

The Twins got a clutch hit from third baseman Ricky Pena. In the bottom of the tenth, he hit a run-scoring single to right-center, to win the game for the Twins.

"Big win," said Rutgers.
