Cardenas Sparks Indians Comeback Past Twins in 10th
Cleveland catcher Leo Cardenas delivered a two run single in the 10th inning to fuel an 8-4 win over Minnesota. The Cuban infielder had gone two for three after returning from spring trade, and his two RBI sealed the come-from-behind victory as Cleveland tied the game in the seventh. George Hendrick started the 10th rally, with Rusty Torres and Jack Brohamer contributing key hits as the Indians prevailed in Bloomington.
