A two-run home run by left fielder Hideki Matsui and the five-hit pitching of Roger Clemens over seven very strong innings enabled the Yankees to take a one game lead in the series with a 3-1 victory in Game Three. Mariano Rivera earned his second straight save with another two perfect innings of relief. The Twins lone run came in the third inning off a solo homerun by catcher A.J. Pierzynski.
