White Slugs Guardians to 7-6 Win
A 4-RBI performance from the 25-year old third baseman Byron White helped the Cleveland Guardians beat the Minnesota Twins, 7-6. Mark McCain recorded the save, his 25th. The first-place Twins have dropped 5 straight games.

White had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the sixth. On a 1-2 curveball from Lucas Giolito, he banged a 3-run home run to right-center, giving the Guardians a 7-6 lead. It was the 8th home run of the year for White.

"One win at a time, one game at a time. We try not to get too far ahead of ourselves," White told the Cleveland Times.
