Live Game Updates: Yankees at Twins - 6/17

9:00 p.m., Mid 1st: Yankees break through early against Pat Dean. They score four runs in the first, courtesy of RBI double by Refsnyder, a two-run shot by Beltran and an infield single by Didi. 

9:09 p.m., End 1st: Headley ends the opening frame with a nice diving stop. He might've saved a run.

9:32 p.m., End 2nd: Twins put two men in scoring position before an out is recorded, but Tanaka limits them to a single run. It's 4-1 Yankees after two innings of play.

9:53 p.m., Mid 3rd: The Yankees add three more runs off Dean, knocking the lefty out of the game after just 2 1/3 innings. Didi now has two RBI on the night following a fielder's choice, while Austin Romine has also gotten involved with a two-run double.

10:14 p.m., Mid 4th: Castro extends the Yankees' lead with a sac fly off Neil Ramirez. Make that 8-1 New York.

10:33 p.m., End 5th: It's now an official game just in case the weather gets bad again. Given a lot of breathing room, Tanaka is starting to cruise.

10:55 p.m., Mid 7th: It's stretch time at Target Field. Score's still the same.

11:20 p.m., End 8th: Tanaka strands men on the corners in the eighth. With his pitch count at 110, his outing is likely over, but it certainly was a good one.

11:49 p.m., End 9th: That's your ballgame. Nick Goody serves up a solo shot to Eduardo Escobar in the ninth, but the Yankees still win 8-2.
