  • The Twins snapped Cleveland’s 10-game winning streak with a 6-2 win as Brooks Lee hit a go-ahead two-run homer and Royce Lewis added a pinch-hit three-run shot.
  • Steven Kwan opened the game with a leadoff homer and Bo Naylor’s sacrifice fly made it 2-0 before Minnesota rallied against the Guardians’ bullpen.
  • Cleveland remains one game behind the Tigers and holds the season-series tiebreaker over Houston in the wild-card race.
  • The Guardians host Detroit for three games starting Tuesday at Progressive Field, carrying a 6-4 edge in the season series after a 6-1 road trip.
  • The club also celebrated Daniel Espino’s first game action since 2022 at Triple-A Columbus (21 pitches, 2/3 inning, three runs, up to about 99 mph) with plans for carefully limited outings in the Arizona Fall League.
