The Cleveland Guardians secured a pivotal 4-3 victory over the Minnesota Twins, with rookie Kyle Manzardo hitting a two-run homer in the eighth inning. This win marks the Guardians' 40th come-from-behind victory, putting them 7.5 games ahead in the AL Central and reducing their magic number for playoff clinching to two. Emmanuel Clase achieved his 46th save of the season, tying the franchise record, while rookie Andrew Walters earned his first career win as the bullpen stepped up after starter Matthew Boyd's early struggles. Meanwhile, the New York Mets edged past Washington with a game-ending single from Starling Marte, moving them into a wild card position ahead of Atlanta, who suffered a heavy loss to the Dodgers. The outcome of the Guardians and Twins matchup could significantly influence the playoff picture as the regular season winds down.
