Steven Kwan’s game-winning home run lifts Guardians over Twins

Saturday’s night game seemed to be following a familiar script, as the Minnesota Twins erased a 3-0 deficit late in the game against the Cleveland Guardians’ bullpen.

That is, until Steven Kwan decided to go off script.

With two outs in the seventh inning, Kwan got a hanging slider from Twins reliever Jorge Alcala and launched it over the wall in right-center to plate the go-ahead run.

It was his first home run of the season and it couldn’t have come at a better time for the Guardians, who managed to hold on for a 4-3 victory over the Twins.
