CLEVELAND (AP) — Shelley Duncan drove in three runs in each half of a day-night doubleheader, and the Cleveland Indians erased a six-run deficit to beat the Minnesota Twins 7-6 on Saturday night for the sweep.

The Indians also won the opener 8-2 behind Duncan, who hit a two-run single with two out in the first and a tiebreaking sacrifice fly in Cleveland’s six-run sixth inning.

Duncan’s two-run single off Matt Capps put Cleveland ahead 7-6 in the seventh inning of the nightcap as the Indians won for the eighth time in 11 games.
