A three-run sixth inning highlighted by Rod Carew's two-run, bases-loaded single, carried the Twins past the Yankees, 7-6, as New York had its five-game winning streak snapped. Both clubs scored three times in the second, the Yankees getting two runs on Sandy Alomar's first homer of the season with a mate aboard. Steve Brye drove home a pair of runs with a single in the Twins' half.
