15 hits for the night while Philadelphia had 6.

Johan Santana struck out 11 batters as the Minnesota Twins outscored the
Philadelphia Phillies 4 to 1.
Santana(2-0) was indeed brilliant as he hand-cuffed the Philadelphia offense.
He gave up just 6 hits and 1 walk in 9 innings lowering his ERA from 2.57 to
1.13. Minnesota managed 12 hits in their victory.
Freddy Garcia(1-1) ended up with the loss. He was hit hard and gave up 9 hits
and 2 walks in 6 and 1/3 innings. Everyone seemed to enjoy the performance
of Santana - except Philadelphia. Rick Cornell lamented, 'He just was 'on'
tonight. He was keeping our guys off balance all game. A fine game by a
good strikeout pitcher - makes it a fun game for the hometown fans -
unfortunately we were the visitors!'

WEB GEMS- Bot 1st: Ichiro Suzuki robbed Cliff Floyd of a Homerun!
Bot 8th: Jack Wilson robbed Albert Pujols of a base hit.
50,547 fans watched an exciting game at Yankee Stadium. The Minnesota Twins
topped the Philadelphia Phillies by the slimmest of margins, 3 to 2.
The score was tied at 2 after nine. Minnesota ended up winning it in the 11th
inning. Carlos Lee blasted a solo shot (his 3rd of the season). Hideki
Matsui was a strikeout victim, unable to help out. One out later, Tino
Martinez dug into the batters box next, but he struck out. Philadelphia went
down quietly in the bottom of the 11th.
The win was credited to Fernando Rodney(1-0) who went 1 and 2/3 innings
