Matt Keough, who had won three straight games, failed to last the first inning as the Twins defeated the A's, 10-3. Keough walked the bases loaded and then gave up four runs, one on a groundout by Glenn Adams, two on a double by Butch Wynegar and one on a single by Mike Cubbage.

The Twins turned on the power in the fifth with a two-run homer by Jose Morales and three-run drive by Rick Sofield. The A's had homers by Rob Picciolo, Jeff Newman and Wayne Gross, all with the bases empty. [The Sporting News]
