Only one out away from a no-hitter, Steve Luebber had his bid spoiled and then needed last-out help from Bill Campbell to wrap up the Twins' 3-1 victory over the Rangers. Roy Howell wrecked the 27-year-old righthander's hitless performance with a single and reached third when Lyman Bostock allowed the ball to get past him in center field.
