1967 American League Pennant Race

April 16, 1967 at Metropolitan Stadium

Indians 4, Twins 3  (1-4)

The Twins lost for the fourth time in their first five games in a tough loss to the Indians.  After going down 4-1, the Twins rallied with two runs in the eighth but that was close as they’d get. 

Mudcat Grant was knocked around for four runs in five innings of work.  Three relievers combined for four shutout innings to allow the Twins to mount their comeback but as we saw, they fell just short.

Zoilo Versailles was the Twins offense today.  He drove in all three runs on two singles.  Harmon Killebrew also had a nice game.  He went one for two with two walks and two runs.
