Twins Turn Back Knights, 3-1
|
The Minnesota Twins picked up a win at Metrodome, knocking off the Charlotte Knights, 3-1. Starting pitcher Kevin Ritz, who captured player of the game honors, was a big reason why. Ritz got the win, improving to 8-9. He allowed 6 hits and walked 4 over 6 innings. Ritz allowed 1 earned run. Rob Dibble notched his 19th save in 21 chances.
Larry Walker swatted a 2-run home run for Minnesota in the bottom of the first. The right fielder went 2 for 4 for the game, including 1 home run and 1 double. He scored 1 run and batted in 2.
"I really like what we did out there today," Ritz said after the game.
Minnesota now owns a record of 48-60.
