Red Sox Score Late, Stun Twins, 3-2
The Red Sox had to overcome a fine performance from Minnesota pitcher Mike Oquist to grab a 3-2 win at Metrodome. Oquist allowed 2 earned runs over 5.1 innings. The win was credited to Doug Bochtler in relief. His record improves to 10-8. Trevor Hoffman took the loss. Boston is now 58-93.

Boston used the bat of Barry Bonds to get the win. The right fielder hammered a solo home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Red Sox ahead, 3-2. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"We squandered some opportunities," said Minnesota manager Darren Fischbach.
