Vikings Earn Late Win
Metrodome was the site of a tense game between the Dallas Cowboys and Minnesota Vikings.

In a tight tilt between the Minnesota Vikings and the Dallas Cowboys, Eric McNutt was the deciding factor. The Minnesota left-hander spearheaded the 3-2 win. Odílio Cinza nailed down his 8th save.

Minnesota took a 3-2 lead on Jeremy Lamb's 5th home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Lamb hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Dallas pitcher Eddie Perez visibly frustrated.

In postgame remarks, Lamb hailed his team's "single-minded focus."

Minnesota goes to 13-13.
