The Twins rode Bobby Darwin's three-run, first-inning homer and six-hit pitching by Joe Decker to a 6-2 triumph over the Yankees' Sam McDowell. Darwin connected with two out after Rod Carew reached first on a fielder's choice and Larry Hisle singled. Minnesota added two in the second on a walk to Craig Kusick, Glenn Borgmann's double, a single by Steve Brye, walk to Carew and reliever Dick Tidrow's wild throw to the plate on Hisle's grounder.
