Randy Johnson hit his first major league homer in the fifth and Pete Redfern tossed a seven-hitter to lead the Twins to a 3-1 decision over the Angels. Johnson's two-bagger broke a 1-1 tie in the seventh. Minnesota added another marker in the same frame on Gary Ward's sacrifice fly. [The Sporting News]
