Spirited fans greeted the Cleveland Guardians for their clash with the Minnesota Twins.

The Minnesota Twins topped the Cleveland Guardians, 10-3, in American League action at Progressive Field. The game was highlighted by the performance of Minnesota pitcher Jon Meger. In 8 innings, Meger surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 8 and walking 0. He allowed 1 run.

Bill Widby, the 24-year old left fielder , had a direct impact on the outcome. Widby contributed a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put Minnesota up, 3-0.

"We're all about heart and hustle on this team. That's what wins ballgames," Meger told the Minnesota Herald.

The win gives Minnesota a record of 8-5.
