Will Brennan clubbed a three-run walk-off homer in the ninth, and the Cleveland Guardians swept a three-game series against the visiting Minnesota Twins with a 5-2 victory on Sunday. After Cleveland's Emmanuel Clase (3-1) failed to hold a 2-1 lead in the top of the ninth, Brennan picked him up when his drive bounced off the top of the right-field wall and into the seats with two on and two outs against Jhoan Duran (0-2). It was the sixth win in seven games for the American League Central-leading Guardians.
Jorge Montanez breaks down the week of saves across baseball in his weekly closer rankings and highlights some steals options on the waiver wire.
“We're taking it day by day,” said Vogt. The Guardians played 11 innings on Saturday, 10 on Sunday and 10 more on Tuesday following Monday's off day. Cleveland relievers Scott Barlow, Emmanuel Clase, Hunter Gaddis and Nick Sandlin are tied for second in the American League in appearances with 16 each.
