GAME RECAP

Impact player

Scott Kazmir, Cleveland

The veteran lefthander held the Twins to one run over seven strong innings.

BY THE NUMBERS

2.08 ERA for Kazmir in his two starts against the Twins this season.

4 Home runs over the past five games for Brian Dozier.

7-6 Record for the Twins against lefthanded starters.

On Deck

Cleveland righthander Corey Kluber has pitched eight innings in each of his past two starts coming into his outing on Saturday night. Kluber is also pitching off five days of rest, which could be timely given his recent workload. Righthander P.J. Walters will start for the Twins.
