4/5/10 Minnesota Twins 3, Los Angeles Angels 6

Angel Stadium, Anaheim, CA
(Opening Day)

The Angels' combined firepower (with the charge led by Matsui-san) decimates the Twins. Scott Baker can't hold down the Halos while Jered Weaver does his job well and gets a back-up with run support.

MIN 3 7 0
LAA 6 10 0
