Guardians rally for a 5-2 win, cut Twins’ lead to 5 games

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Kole Calhoun hit a three-run home run in the 10th inning to cap Cleveland’s late comeback against the Minnesota bullpen as the Guardians beat the Twins 5-2 to trim their deficit in the AL Central to five games.

Five relievers had a hand in squandering another stellar start by Sonny Gray.

The All-Star right-hander gave the Twins seven scoreless innings.

Rookie Kody Funderburk gave up the homer to Calhoun on a 3-0 fastball.

Trevor Stephan struck out the side in the ninth for the win.

Emmanuel Clase pitched a perfect 10th inning for his 36th save in 45 chances.
