Twins Deal Guardians 2-0 Loss
Minnesota got a strong outing from Keyvius Sampson as the Twins defeated the Cleveland Guardians, 2-0, at Progressive Field. Jimmy Bannatyne was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 41 of 47 save opportunities. The Twins have an impressive 85-54 record.

It could have been a different outcome for Minnesota, had it not been for Jordon Adell, the slugging center fielder . Adell contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the third inning to put Minnesota up, 1-0.

"One win at a time, one game at a time. We try not to get too far ahead of ourselves," Adell told the Minnesota Observer.
