Guardians Complete Sweep of Pirates with 5-4 Win in 10 Innings

The Cleveland Guardians completed a three-game sweep of the Pittsburgh Pirates with a 5-4 extra-inning victory on Sunday. Key performances included two-run homers from Steven Kwan and Kyle Manzardo, with Manzardo also delivering the go-ahead sacrifice fly in the 10th inning. The Pirates rallied for three runs in the ninth to tie the game, highlighted by Adam Frazier's two-run double and Ke'Bryan Hayes' RBI single, but ultimately fell short. Guardians closer Emmanuel Clase gave up the lead in the ninth but managed to avoid the loss, while Joey Cantillo secured his first career save by escaping a tense 10th inning. The win capped a strong series for Cleveland, with both teams now preparing for upcoming series on the road and at home. The Pirates' struggles continued despite some late-game heroics, as they head to California for a six-game road trip.
