Cardinals Prove Rude Guests, Win 4-2 at Minnesota
Riding the 2-hit performance of the two-time Gold Glove winner Matt Williams, the St. Louis Cardinals stopped the Minnesota Twins, 4-2. Bill C. Swift, who went 7.1 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 2 runs on 7 hits, while walking 1 and striking out 7. His record now stands at 4-3. The 5th-place Twins have dropped 4 straight games.

Williams came through with some timely hitting for St. Louis. With the score 3-2 in the top of the fifth and no one down, Williams hit a 1-1 curveball for a solo home run. His 17th home run of the season made it 4-2, St. Louis.

Williams called the win "a collective effort."
