GAME RECAP
Impact player
Jason Kipnis, Cleveland
He followed up a four-RBI Friday by nearly hitting for the cycle Saturday, smashing three hits, including a triple and a home run.
BY THE NUMBERS
3 Consecutive series which began with two losses by the Twins.
12 Hits by the Indians, giving them six consecutive games with a dozen hits, their longest such streak since July 1936.
5 Innings pitched by Kevin Correia, the first time in his six starts that he failed to last at least seven innings.
ON DECK
Mike Pelfrey has been supported by 7.66 runs per game this year — a number that happens to be his ERA as well.
