Games Notes

Scott Baker and a pair of big hits lift the Twins to a 4-0 win over the Angels.

Baker out-duels Angels' All-Star Jered Weaver to help Minnesota wrap up a 7-2 homestand and strengthen its hold on 1st place in the AL Central. Baker goes 7 innings, allowing 5 hits and 2 walks with 4 strikeouts.

Baker gets his offensive support when Danny Valencia opens the scoring with a solo HR in the 5th, and then Michael Cuddyer delivers a bases-clearing double after the Twins load the bases in the inning.
