Mitchell goes 3-for-3, Ignites Minnesota Offense
The Minnesota Twins beat the Cleveland Guardians, 5-3, at Progressive Field. Garrett Mitchell, who is tied for 4th in the AL in triples with 7, starred for Minnesota. He went 3-3 with a double, 2 singles, and 2 walks, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Thomas Szapucki earned his 23rd save in 31 chances. The Twins now have a mark of 70-82.

Minnesota used the timely hitting of Logan Davidson to seize the win. The designated hitter stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Twins on top, 5-3. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

Mitchell told a Minnesota Today reporter that he was "gratified" with the win.
