In an almost unprecedented battle of futility, the Cleveland Guardians and Minnesota Twins both lost again. At least this time, the Guardians did so in a different manner, with a sacrifice bunt from Andres Gimenez in the first inning, a Myles Straw homer, attempting to pitch Xzavion Curry a third time through an order, 45 pitches from Daniel Norris, a crucial error on a hard-hit ground ball to Andres Gimenez playing pulled-in, and two walks from Kole Calhoun in the cleanup spot. At least we got the familiar failure of a generally reliable bullpen arm in Nick Sandlin’s hanging slider offered up to Wander Franco.
