Liriano leads Twins’ win

By R.B. FALLSTROM Associated Press

ST. LOUIS — Francisco Liriano pitched so well, his unsightly stats coming into the game must have been a typing mistake. The Minnesota left- hander worked seven strong innings backed by Justin Morneau’s three- run, first-inning home run in the Twins’ 6-2 vic- tory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday. Liriano entered 3-8 with a 5.88 ERA, but he won his second-straight start during a turnaround June, and this one was a huge improvement over a five-inning, 117-pitch effort at Milwaukee five days earlier. “It was exciting for us to see,” manager Ron Garden- hire said. “We need to get him going.” Joe Mauer singled his first two at bats for the JEFF ROBERSON/ASSOCIATED PRESS Twins to hike his average Minnesota Twins’ Justin Morneau (33) is congratulated by teammates Denard Span (2) and Joe Mauer after to .400 before a double-play hitting a three-run home run during the first inning against the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday in St. Louis. ball, a groundout, and a strikeout dropped him to third base coach Jose but I felt comfortable.
