Jason Kipnis hit a three-run homer that broke a sixth-inning tie and sent the Cleveland Indians over the Minnesota Twins 5-3.

The AL Central-leading Indians opened a 14-game lead over second-place Minnesota. Cleveland is 31-11 against division opponents, and needed this win to beat the Twins 10-9 in the season series.

The Twins scored their runs on a two-run homer by Ehire Adrianza and a solo shot by Miguel Sano.

In a swap of backup catchers, the Twins have traded Bobby Wilson to the Chicago Cubs for Chris Gimenez and a player to be named or cash. Both players are 35 years old.
