The Indians gave Tribe moms something to cheer about Sunday with a solid 8-3 win over the first-place Minnesota Twins in the finale of a three-game set at Progressive Field on Mother’s Day.
The 23,099 fans enjoyed a little power display as the Indians matched a season-high with four homers, two from Jason Kipnis who was installed to the top of the lineup, as he led off the game with a homer off Twins losing pitcher Hector Santiago.
The win puts the Indians back within a game of the Twins for the lead in the division at 19-17, dropping Minnesota to 19-15 on the year.
