Harmon Killebrew and Rod Carew batted in two runs apiece and Rich Reese hit a homer to pace the Twins to an 8-4 victory over the Red Sox. Killebrew singled with the bases loaded in the fifth inning and two more runs followed on singles by Bobby Darwin and Steve Braun. Carew accounted for his RBIs with a double in the sixth and Reese wrapped up the decision with his round-tripper in the ninth.
