Joe Ryan throws 6 2/3 innings in Twins' 4-1 victory over the Yankees
Ryan (12-5) allowed only a homer to Cody Bellinger in the game that was delayed at the start for 1 hour, 52, minutes because of rain.
The right-hander struck out seven, walked two and threw his hardest pitch of the season when he struck out Aaron Judge on a 97.7 mph fastball in the first. After Bellinger homered, Ryan struck out the next four hitters and allowed two baserunners the rest of the way.
Kody Clemens hit a two-run double and Royce Lewis added an RBI double in Minnesota's three-run sixth off Yerry De Los Santos (0-1) and Mark Leiter Jr.
Rookie Luke Keaschall had an RBI groundout as the Twins beat the Yankees for the first time since April 26, 2023.
Minnesota ended its skid to New York after executive chair Joe Pohlad announced his family will remain the principal owner and add two new investment groups instead.
Kody Funderburk struck out Austin Wells to end the seventh, and Justin Topa had a six-out save to finish the five-hitter.
New York rookie Cam Schlitter allowed one run and three hits in 5 1/3 innings. The hard-throwing righty retired the first nine hitters until Trevor Larnach walked ahead of a double by Byron Buxton.
Key Moment
Infield hits by Buxton and Keaschall started Minnesota's rally. Clemens followed with a two-strike double, took third when center fielder Trent Grisham bobbled the ball and scored on the Lewis double.
Key Stat
Clemens was hitless in his previous 18 at-bats before his double.

How Steph Curry is preparing for Warriors season despite roster ‘uncertainty'
How Steph Curry is preparing for Warriors season despite roster 'uncertainty' originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area The Warriors are the only team in the NBA who haven't made an offseason move leading up to the 82-game slate in 2025-26. But Golden State superstar guard Steph Curry isn't worried. At his Curry Camp on Thursday, the 11-time NBA All-Star detailed to reporters where his confidence in the Warriors comes from, particularly before training camp starts in late September. 'It's different, for sure,' Curry prefaced about Golden State's move-less offseason. 'But … my confidence is built on the identity that we were able to create over the last third of the regular season last year (and) the playoff journey. We have a really good team, and we do know we need some pieces to help get us to the next level. 'I think the veteran presence that we have — with me, Jimmy [Butler], Draymond [Green] – like, we understand how to prepare through that uncertainty and be able to hit the ground running in training camp, knowing we should have some movement by then.' Curry, a four-time NBA champion and 17-year veteran with his Warriors, isn't writing off the campaign before it even starts. And unlike those fairly critical of Golden State's current makeup, Curry is choosing to remember just how good the Warriors were after acquiring Butler right before the 2025 NBA trade deadline — they had a 23-7 regular-season record with Butler on the floor. Curry also lightly mentioned the Warriors' promising playoff run, which was cut short after he suffered a Grade 1 hamstring strain that kept him out of the devastating second-round series loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Whether it's the acquisition of veteran center Al Horford, the trading of up-and-coming forward Jonathan Kuminga or something else up Golden State's sleeve, Curry isn't losing any sleep over the Warriors' current roster. After all, he isn't the one making decisions. 'But, you control what you can control,' Curry said. And no matter how many new experiences you have or whatever the difference is from this offseason to the previous ones, you don't let it affect your own personal preparation for the season and then the conversations that we're having on what we need to do to get ready.'
