California 1 at Minnesota 5
-The Twins and Angels have reversed fortunes the past two night. The Twins get a rare complete game – and a home run – from rookie Paul Hartzell (1-2, 4.28) to down the Angels on the first two nights of June. The Angels had won 16 of 18 to finish May.
Oakland 4 at Kansas City 3 (11)
-The defending division champion A’s are hanging in there despite the great play of the Royals so far this season.

Dave Hamiton (5-1, 2.73) pitched three shutout innings of relief for the win
