Padres Clip Twins, 7-6
Target Field was the site of an exciting ballgame between the San Diego Padres and Minnesota Twins.

Despite the exploits of catcher Francisco Mejia, the Minnesota Twins were beaten by the San Diego Padres, 7-6, in 11 innings. Mejia was 5-5 with 3 doubles and 2 singles. Domynguos Venegas earned the save for San Diego, his 1st.

Jorge Gordon drove in one run for San Diego. The 27-year old catcher had a key at-bat in the top of the 11th. With no one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 4-4 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Pat Calhoun. It was his 29th RBI of the season.

Gordon told reporters after the game: "Took some doing, but we got it done."

The Padres are now 65-71, while the Twins fall to 58-78.
