CLEVELAND -- Paul Molitor has learned a major league manager can never relax.Molitor watched his Minnesota team nearly blow an eight-run lead before the Twins hung on to beat the Cleveland Indians 10-6 Tuesday night.Im not sure exactly how to verbalize what transpired there, he said. It was a good tester for our guys and we found a way to win.Minnesota rookie Max Kepler homered for the fourth time in two games. He hit his fourth two-run drive of the series in the third inning, two batters after Brian Doziers two-run shot.The Twins also scored four times in the fourth against Carlos Carrasco (7-5).Any notion the Twins would cruise to a win ended when the Indians scored six times in the fifth and chased starter Kyle Gibson, who took an 8-0 lead into the inning.Carlos Santana and Mike Napoli each hit a two-run homer. Francisco Lindor had an RBI single before Lonnie Chisenhalls RBI double finished Gibson.I dont know if I ever saw it quite this way, Molitor said. You always imagine worst-case scenarios and how to be prepared. When the Indians get things going they can score in a hurry just like a lot of teams, so youre always guarded.Ryan Pressly (6-5), who retired Napoli with two on to end the sixth, pitched 1 1/3 scoreless innings.Gibson was three outs from qualifying for what appeared to be an easy win, but Cleveland sent 11 batters to the plate in the fifth. Gibson allowed six runs in 4 2/3 innings.Im not really sure what happened, honestly, he said.Minnesota, in last place in the AL Central, is 7-4 against first-place Cleveland this season. The loss narrowed Clevelands lead over Detroit to three games.I dont know what they do against everyone else, but theyve played us pretty darn well, Indians manager Terry Francona said.Kepler, born in Germany, hit a trio of two-run homers with six RBI in Mondays 12-5 win. He walked three times Tuesday and leads AL rookies in homers (15) and RBI (46).Another good night, Molitor said. His swings locked in. Its fun to watch a young kid figure things out.Eduardo Escobar hit a two-run homer for Minnesota in the ninth. Dozier had three RBI and Miguel Sano added a two-run double.Joe Mauer, who had four hits Monday, doubled twice and drove in a run.Carrasco allowed a career-high eight runs in 3 2/3 innings on a tough day for Clevelands rotation. Danny Salazar was placed on the 15-day disabled list with right elbow inflammation.Napolis home run traveled an estimated 454 feet and landed three rows from the top of the bleachers in left field.RISING ROOKIEKepler, who lives in Berlin, was deluged with congratulatory texts about Mondays performance. I enjoyed all the attention and the love from my family and friends, he said before Tuesdays game.
