The Minnesota Twins defeated the Baltimore Orioles 4–1 on March 28 at Oriole Park at Camden Yards, with the visitors' pitching staff dominating despite modest offensive output from both teams. Minnesota's pitchers struck out 16 Orioles while allowing just 5 hits and 1 earned run, posting a 1.59 ERA that overwhelmed Baltimore's lineup. The Twins' offense, though limited to 4 hits, capitalized on their opportunities with 1 home run and 4 RBIs to secure the victory. Baltimore managed only 5 hits with a .482 OPS and struck out 16 times, generating just 1 run despite drawing 6 walks; a defensive error added to the home team's struggles. Both offenses operated well below typical production levels, but Minnesota's pitching advantage—particularly the strikeout differential—proved decisive in this spring training matchup. The Twins' ability to win decisively with limited hitting suggests their rotation depth could carry them through early-season inconsistencies.
