A run-scoring single by Ken Landreaux snapped a 3-3 tie in the sixth inning as the Twins posted a 5-3 decision over the Tigers. Rob Wilfong led off the Twins' sixth with a bunt single, stole second, advanced to third on a groundout and scored on a single by Landreaux. Ron Jackson singled home an insurance tally in the ninth as Mike Marshall gained his 17th save in his 52nd appearance of the season.
