Ramirez 3-4 as Indians Squeeze Past Minnesota
Jose Ramirez was instrumental in his team's 6-5 triumph over the Minnesota Twins. The third baseman went 3 for 4 with a home run, a triple, and a double, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 3 for the Cleveland Indians. Picking up the win was Aaron Civale. He went 5 innings, allowing 4 runs on 10 hits. The right--hander struck out 5 and walked 0. The Indians, now 8-4, have played some good baseball in the early going.

Early in the game, Ramirez had a 2-run home run for Cleveland. It was his 5th home run of the season and put the Indians on top, 4-2.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Cleveland manager Terry Francona.
