1967 American League Pennant Race

September 13, 1967 at D.C. Stadium
Twins 3 (84-63), Senators 2 

The Twins got an outstanding outing from starter Jim Kaat to beat the Senators in their series finale and in the process, they remained tied for first place with the Red Sox.  Kaat improved to 13-13 and he gave up just two runs on nine hits and a walk with nine strikeouts in eight innings of work.  In an odd move, the Twins used ace Dean Chance to pitch the ninth inning and he paid off because he put the Senators down in order with two strikeouts to preserve the game.  The save would be his first and only of the season.

Harmon Killebrew put the Twins on the board in the first inning with a two run shot, his 38th of the season.  Bob Allison tripled and he drove in the other run.
