Game Notes
Twins walk off with a 10-9 win after blowing a 7-run lead.
Justin Morneau's solo HR in the bottom of the 9th wins it despite the Minnesota staff losing a 9-2 lead, with 5 runs coming in the final 2 innings, highlighted by a crazy 2-run 9th against closer Joe Nathan.
The Brewers pull to within 1 when Lew Ford loses a high pop-up by Prince Fielder, allowing the rotund slugger to score on an inside-the-park HR despite his approaching the 300-lb mark. Craig Counsell's sac fly ties it, but Nathan manages to strand a pair of runners in scoring position to preserve a tie.
Morneau's blast leading off the 9th, caps a productive offensive day for him as he goes 2-for-2 with a double, HR, 3 runs, 3 RBI, 2 walks and a Sac Fly. Milwaukee's Cory Hart goes 3-for-6 with a pair of HRs.
Winning pitcher - Nathan (3-1)
Losing pitcher - Chris Spurling (1-1)
