Guardians and Pirates play, winner secures 3-game series
The Cleveland Guardians and Pittsburgh Pirates play on Sunday with the winner claiming the three-game series3 HOURS AGO • Associated Press
Esmerlyn Valdez - Another three RBI Valdez went 2-for-8 with a two-run home run, a double and three RBI across both games of Saturday's doubleheader against the Guardians.
Impact Valdez made both of his hits count, as he swatted a two-run home run in the first game and then tallied an RBI double in the latter contest. He continues to turn in impressive performances, as he now has a six-game hitting streak, during which he's gone 8-for-24 with five home runs, 13 RBI and seven runs scored.

Steven Kwan - Five hits in twin bill Kwan went 5-for-6 with a walk, a double and three total runs scored across both ends of Saturday's doubleheader split with the Pirates.
Impact The outfielder struggled to begin the season, but over the last month Kwan has begun to find his rhythm at the plate. Across his last 20 games dating back to June 23, he's batting .361 (22-for-61) with three doubles, two triples, three steals, three RBI and eight runs. He's found his comfort zone while mainly batting in the lower third of the order, but Kwan's hot streak might be good enough to jump him back into a more prominent spot.

Logan Allen - Inefficient in spot start Allen didn't factor into the decision in the second game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Pirates, giving up three runs (two earned) on six hits and three walks over 3.1 inni...
Impact Called up as the 27th man to get the start in the nightcap of the twin bill, Allen needed 81 pitches (51 strikes) to record just 10 outs before getting the hook in line for the loss. Cleveland's offense was able to bail him out late, however. The southpaw is likely to return to Triple-A Columbus, but through two big-league appearances (one start) this season he's posted a 2.45 ERA, 2.05 WHIP and 10:4 K:BB over 7.1 innings.

Gavin Williams - Fans 11 in Saturday's loss Williams (10-5) took the loss in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Pirates, giving up five runs on seven hits -- including three home runs -- over six innings....
Impact Despite the right-hander's dominance over 84 pitches (65 strikes), he served up more than two long balls in a start for the first time this season to get saddled with his first loss in over a month. The 11 strikeouts tied Williams' season high, a mark he's reached four times now, including his last outing before the All-Star break. Williams will take a 4.00 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 145:37 K:BB over 119.1 innings into his next trip to the mound, which is set to come at home next week against the Twins.
