Roden’s walkoff single sends Twins to second straight win over Guardians

Roden finished 2-for-5 with two RBIs in his season debut after Minnesota promoted him from Triple-A Saint Paul.

  • On Wednesday, July 8, 2026, Minnesota Twins outfielder Alan Roden hit a walk-off RBI single in the ninth inning, securing a 6-5 victory over the Cleveland Guardians in Minneapolis.
  • Cleveland initially led 3-0 after Brayan Rocchio and Rhys Hoskins homered in the fourth inning, but the Twins responded with three runs to even the score.
  • Erratic pitching from reliever Erik Sabrowski allowed the Twins to tie the game in the seventh by issuing back-to-back bases-loaded walks, erasing Cleveland's 5-3 lead.
  • Promoted from Triple-A Saint Paul just one day prior, Roden finished his season debut with two RBIs, extending the Twins' winning streak to four games.
  • RHP Gavin Williams starts Thursday opposite Twins RHP Bailey Ober, who returns to the mound after nearly six weeks on the injured list.
