Walker Delivers Walk-Off Win for Twins
Minnesota Twins starter Pat Combs was definitely locked-in. He led his team to a win over the Pittsburgh Pirates, 6-3. The win was Trevor Hoffman's in relief. His record improves to 4-5. Bryan Harvey took the loss for Pittsburgh. The win puts the Twins at 44-75, while the Pirates drop to 61-59.

With runs few and far between, the Twins had to seize their opportunities when they came. One of the most important chances for Minnesota came in the bottom of the tenth inning, when right fielder Larry Walker delivered a 3-run home run. The home run was hit off Bryan Clark and made the score 6-3, Twins. Walker went 1 for 4 with a home run and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once.

"Baseball is about momentum," said Combs, "and we feel we've got it in our favor after that win."
