Killebrew’s infield single lifts Twins to AL West lead
Harmon Killebrew delivered a slow roller to drive in Ted Uhlaender for a fifth inning run as the Minnesota Twins edged the California Angels 5-3.

Rich Reese went 4-for-4 and contributed in the sixth with a run, while Mike Fiore and Bob Oliver drove in key Royals runs in their 6-? win. Baltimore beat Washington in 11 innings 6-3 as Frank Robinson belted a three-run homer in the 11th. Detroit topped New York 2-1, and Boston split with Cleveland in a doubleheader, the Red Sox winning the night game 6-1 after dropping the day contest 6-3.
