Are the Twins the Yankees' personal punching bag? The results say they are on most nights, but they weren't Tuesday night thanks to Joe Ryan delivering a gem.

Joe Ryan allowed a run and four hits in 6 2/3 innings and the Minnesota Twins beat the Yankees 4-1 on Wednesday night, breaking a nine-game losing streak to New York.

In front of more than 44,000 fans, under the bright lights at Yankee Stadium, Ryan featured some of his best stuff. In the first inning, he touched 97.7 miles per hour, the fastest pitch of his career. He finished that at-bat by striking out three-time MVP Aaron Judge.
