MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Andres Gimenez hit a go-ahead double in the 10th inning and scored a sure run after a bases clash, and the Cleveland Guardians beat the Minnesota Twins 3-2 on Saturday. Gimenez scored the automatic runner but ran into Minnesota first baseman Jose Miranda as he rounded the corner toward second. He was shocked and met with an athletic trainer, but stayed in the game. The umpires awarded him second base and he later scored on a single by Myles Straw.
