Benefiting from an exceptional performance from Mike Piazza, the Chicago Cubs defeated the Minnesota Twins, 11-3. Piazza went 4-6 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Cubs. Chicago starter Willie Banks was credited with the win after throwing 112 pitches over 6 innings. His record now stands at 3-3.

With Chicago leading 2-1 in the top of the fourth, Piazza hit a fastball from William VanLandingham for a 2-run double. It was his 4th double of the season and put the Cubs ahead, 4-1.

"Enjoyed this one," Piazza told the Chicago Chronicle. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
