The Cleveland Guardians cruised to a win over the Minnesota Twins, 12-4, at Jacobs Field. Victor Martinez led the way, going 2-for-2 for Cleveland. The win has Cleveland at 53-84.

Roger Clemens had a big 3-run home run for the Guardians in the bottom of the third inning. With Cleveland leading 4-2 and runners on 1st and 3rd, he sized up a slider from 24-year old right-handed pitcher Brad Purcell and punished it. The result was his 1st home run of the season, which put the Guardians on top, 7-2.

"Winning is hard sometimes," said Guardians manager Charlie Manuel. "This one was nice to get."
