  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Minnesota Twins (55-92) 3 0 3 2 0 0 0 0 1 9 15 1

Twins Edge Indians, 9-8
Adam Jones helped his team muscle past the Cleveland Indians, 9-8. In the game, the Minnesota right fielder went 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. Tommy Kahnle notched his 11th save in 13 chances. With the win over Cleveland, the Twins improved to 55-92.

The game was at a stalemate until second baseman Miguel Rojas came to bat in the top of the ninth. Facing Cleveland pitcher Dellin Betances, he hit a 2-0 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Minnesota on top, 9-8.

"Being able to play a game for a living is one thing. Being able to play it well and contribute to a win is even better," Rojas told the Minnesota Daily News.
