BALTIMORE—Delmon Young went 4-for-4 with a homer and three RBIs, and the Minnesota Twins received an impressive pitching performance from Scott Baker in a 7-2 victory over the Baltimore Orioles on Saturday night.
The four hits tied a career high for Young, who is batting .429 with four homers and 22 RBIs in July.
Danny Valencia had three hits for the Twins, who took a 3-2 lead on Young's two-run drive in the fifth inning before pulling away against the Baltimore bullpen.
