Cole De Vries and three Minnesota relievers combined to hold Kansas City to one run Saturday and the Twins beat the Royals 3-1 in Game 1 of a doubleheader. De Vries (4-5) yielded a single tally on seven hits, didn\'t issue a walk and struck out three en route to the victory. Alex Burnett and Jared Burton combined for 1 1/3 scoreless relief frames and Glen Perkins turned a 1-2-3 ninth for his ninth save as Minnesota took the opener of a three-game series that had been washed out Friday. Justin Morneau contributed a run-scoring double and a sacrifice fly in the victory. Kansas City\'s Will Smith (4-7) was tagged with the loss, yielding three runs on nine hits over six frames. Johnny Giavotella drove in the Royals\' only run.
