Minnesota and Anaheim got after it at Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome.

The Minnesota Twins licked the Anaheim Angels, 6-3. A.J. Pierzynski deserved a big chunk of the credit.

The right-hander was charged with 2 runs on 10 hits. Eddie Guardado locked down his 38th save.

With Minnesota leading 1-0 in the bottom of the sixth, Pierzynski hit a run-scoring single off Anaheim hurler Chris Holt. It was the 142nd hit of the season for Pierzynski and put his team ahead, 2-0.

Minnesota manager Shane Cummins commended his team for exhibiting "no shortage of effort."

The win puts the Twins at 78-64, while the Angels drop to 77-65.
