    Josh Willingham didn't know what was coming. His teammates sure did.

    Digging in against Pittsburgh reliever Jason Grilli with the game tied in the eighth on Wednesday night, the Minnesota outfielder was simply looking to get something started.

    He ended up finishing off the Pirates.

    Willingham turned on a 93 mph fastball and sent it into the seats in left-center field to lift the Twins to a needed 2-1 victory.
