Abbott Hurls Complete Game at Yankee Stadium
The New York Yankees knocked off the Minnesota Twins, 9-2. New York starter Jim Abbott pitched well enough to earn top player honors. The last-place Twins have lost 9 straight games.

Abbott's performance can only be described as masterful. He notched 9 strikeouts in 9 innings while allowing 5 hits. Abbott, who is tied for 3rd in the FL in innings pitched with 200.0, goes to 10-10 on the year with 162 strikeouts.

"I just made my pitches," said Abbott, "and the ball kept missing the bat."
