Indians 6, Twins 4  (24-24)

The Twins three game winning streak came to end in a wild ten inning loss to the Indians.  Down 4-1, the Twins rallied for three runs in the bottom of the ninth to tie it only to lose it the following inning when Jim Perry gave up two runs in the tenth.  A pretty good start by Jim Kaat went to waste as well and while he gave up four runs, only three were earned and it was over eight innings.  In addition, Kaat struck out ten.

Harmon Killebrew and Bob Allison hit ninth inning homeruns that when combined, sent the game into extra innings.  Jim Kaat even helped out his own cause and he went two for three with a run.

The Twins rolled over the Indians in the second game of their doubleheader.  Harmon Killebrew hit homerun number fourteen and he drove in three runs.  Tony Oliva had a nice game as well and he went two for four with a double, a run and an RBI.

Dave Boswell got it done on the mound with a nice start.  He gave up one run on five hits and two walks with ten strikeouts in a complete game and the win pushed his record to 3-3 on the season.
