Harmon's HR Wins 5-4 for Twins Over Senators

Harmon Killebrew belted a second homer in as many days to lift the Minnesota Twins to a 6-4 win over the Washington Senators after a rough start by Jim Merritt. Early Wynne adjusted Merritt's pivot, allowing two more Twins hits as they rallied from a first inning deficit. Ken McMullen's error opened the floodgates in the third, Carew scored on a wild pitch in the fifth, and Killebrew again provided the decisive blow with a 381 foot shot to left center. In other AL games Detroit edged Boston 4-3 and California beat Cleveland 7-5.
