Vikings' Asher Allen retires at age 24
CLEVELAND, Aug. 13 (UPI) -- Asdrubal Cabrera smashed a three-run homer Saturday and the Cleveland Indians got a strong start from Josh Tomlin in their 3-1 win over Minnesota.
Cabrera's homer, which came in the third inning, was his 20th of the season and gave him 71 RBI, both career highs in a breakout season for the infielder.
Tomlin (12-5) yielded only one run over 6 1/3 innings, throwing just 84 pitches -- 57 for strikes -- in an efficient outing.
The Indians clinched their three-game series with the Twins and stayed three games behind Detroit in the chase for the American League East title.
Brian Duensing (8-11) absorbed his third consecutive loss for Minnesota, striking out nine while giving up nine hits and two walks in 6 2/3 innings.
