John Danks fanned five in seven innings of work to improve to 9-and-6 with the win. Kevin Correia got hammered for six earned runs in just four frames to fall to 5-and-13 for the Twins, who have lost six of eight since the All-Star break. Josh Willingham and Oswaldo Arcia blasted a solo homer and Chris Colabello plated a pair of runs in the loss.
