Game Notes

Twins knuckle under to Tim Wakefield, Red Sox, falling 3-1.

A day after Pedro Martinez blanks Minnesota, Wakefield's knuckleball is equally baffling. Wakefield allows 4 hits and 1 run while striking out 7 in 8 innings and walking none.

Boston gets the offense it needs in the 6th, putting together a couple walks, a wild pitch, a double, and infield single and a Sac Fly to score a pair of runs.

Starting pitchers:
Twins - Johan Santana
Red Sox - Wakefield

Winning pitcher: Wakefield (6-4)
Losing pitcher: Santana (6-4)
