Highlanders Fall Short at Minnesota
Minnesota starter Héctor Cortéz pitched effectively against the Asheville Highlanders at Asheville Park. The left-hander led his team to a 6-5 win. The 7th-place Highlanders have dropped 4 straight games.

Keith Newbold's hit in the top of the 13th was a game-changer. With one out, he rapped a forkball from Joaquín Ramírez for a run-scoring single. It put Minnesota in front, 6-5.

"I liked his command," said Minnesota manager Sandy Hampton. "Héctor was throwing strikes."
