Nomo Dazzles in Minnesota Win
It was a good time at Metrodome, where fans came to watch the St. Louis Cardinals and Minnesota Twins get after it.

The Minnesota Twins picked up a win at Metrodome, knocking off the St. Louis Cardinals, 7-0. Starting pitcher Hideo Nomo was an essential part of his team's success. The Twins, with just their 8th win so far in 1997, have yet to catch fire.

In his 119-pitch effort, Nomo allowed no earned runs on 5 hits over 8.1 innings. He walked 2 and struck out 4.

"We need to string a few more wins like this one together," said Nomo.
