Royals Rally Past Twins in Second Game of DH
Roger Nelson earned his first major league win in relief as Kansas City overcame a 3-0 deficit to beat Minnesota 8-3 in the nightcap. Lou Piniella delivered a bases-loaded double and John Mayberry added a three-run homer after the inning, with Wayne Granger notching his 12th save. Dick Woodson argued after his removal, but no punches were thrown. The Twins won the opener 5-3 as Harmon Killebrew hit a two-base shot on his 27th birthday.
