Notes & reviews

Kelly Shoppach ran to 3B on the single to LF; Delmon Young's throw beat Shoppach by at least eight steps; Shoppach stopped running so Michael Cuddyer moved over and tagged Shoppach, or so he thought; Shoppach ran to 3B and said something to 3B umpire Alfonso Marquez about no tag; Marquez called Shoppach safe; Twins manager Ron Gardenhire argued the call and was ejected by Marquez
