Clayton Mortensen earned his first major-league win on Friday night, limiting the Twins to one run over six innings.
Mortensen held the Twins to just five hits while walking two and failing to strike out a batter. Blowing people away isn't really this sinkerballer's forte, and, true to form, he induced 13 groundballs is this one. Acquired from the Cardinals in the Matt Holliday trade in July, Mortensen could be bumped out of the rotation with Vin Mazzaro expected to return next week.
