Vikings Nip Athletics, 8-7
The Minneapolis Vikings beat the Kansas City Athletics by a score of 8-7. Minneapolis left fielder Sean Culhane deserved the lion's share of the credit. Culhane went 2 for 3 with a double and 2 walks. He drove in 2 runs for the Vikings. Manny Medina, now 1-1, picked up the win in relief. He allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.1 innings. The Athletics are now 11-18.

Minneapolis took a 8-7 lead on Victor Santana's 5th double of the season. The bases-clearing double, which Santana hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Kansas City pitcher Norbert Maeda shaking his head.

"You work hard, day in and day out, hoping to give the fans something to cheer about. Today was a good day," Culhane told the Minneapolis Herald.
