If you want the shortened version of this recap, just pretend like I copy and pasted last night’s but replaced “Josh Naylor” with “Andrés Giménez”. The young second baseman played the hero in a game that was frustrating right up until it wasn’t, propelling Cleveland to a 5-3 win over the Twins and bringing them within a game of the AL Central lead.
According to MLB.com’s Mandy Bell, this is the first time back-to-back walk-off wins for the Guardians since July 8 and 9 of last year, when Franmil Reyes and Bobby Bradley gave Cleveland a pair of wins.
