The winner was starter Tim Wakefield (17-12).
Hideki Okajima recorded his fifth save.
Minnesota got two hits, one a solo homer in the fourth, and three RBI from Joe Mauer.
Rondell White hit a solo homer in the third, and Brian Buscher had one RBI for the Twins, who have lost six of 10.
The losing pitcher was reliever Nick Blackburn (0-2).
