Minnesota beat Kansas City at Metrodome, eking out a 6-5 win. The win was due in large part to pitcher Hideo Nomo, who earned player of the game honors. The win was Rob Dibble's in relief. His record improves to 3-1. Kevin Rogers took the loss for Kansas City. The Twins sit in 5th place in the Federal League Central Division with a record of 57-65.

Tied up with the Royals in the bottom of the tenth inning, the Twins got a boost from catcher Todd Zeile. With a runner on 1st, Zeile saw a full count curveball from Kevin Rogers and hit a run-scoring double to break the stalemate and put Minnesota on top, 6-5.

"I'm glad I could get it done when the game was in the balance," Nomo said in his postgame press conference.
