Plouffe's blast lifts Twins to 3rd straight win

Indians ace Corey Kluber pitched five perfect innings before giving up a leadoff single to Oswaldo Arcia in the sixth. Arcia ended up advancing on a wild pitch and scoring on a single from Herrmann. The Twins loaded the bases with nobody out, and Herrmann scored on another wild pitch -- a ball that got by catcher Roberto Perez on a strikeout from Eduardo Escobar. Kluber went eight innings, giving up two runs on just three hits, and was saddled with a no-decision.

Twins right-hander Mike Pelfrey went five innings, giving up one run on three hits and four walks.
