The Minnesota Twins clobbered the Chicago White Sox 12-1 byehind Carlos Gomez who hit for the cycle.  Gomez was the first Twins player to hit for the cycle since Kirby Puckett did it 22 years ago.

Gomez wasn’t the only Twins player to put up good numbers however as Nick Punto had five rbi in the game to lead the Twins.  Have Punto’s five rbi, Gomez’s three rbi, Michael Cuddyer, Delmon Young, and Matt Tolbert all had one rbi.

Livan Hernandez was great on the mound as he improved to 5-1 on the season after tossing a complete game.  Hernandez gave up nine hits in the nine innings and only allowed one run which came in the ninth inning when Jermaine Dye hit a solo home run.

The Twins are now 17-15 on the season after the butt kicking off the White Sox.  Twins Blog
