Tony Oliva had a 4-for-4 night at bat, including a homer, and Glenn Borgmann drove in two runs with a double to pace the Twins to a 6-3 victory over the Yankees. Oliva led off the second inning with his circuit clout. After two walks, Borgmann hit his double.

The Yankees had a homer by Bobby Bonds but never caught up. However, the Twins' victory was in doubt in the ninth when the Yankees loaded the bases, but only one run scored on a sacrifice fly by Lou Piniella. [The Sporting News]
