MINNEAPOLIS -- Yan Gomes found it difficult on Sunday to celebrate the Cleveland Indians win with his right arm in a sling.Josh Tomlin pitched 7 2/3 strong innings, Mike Napoli hit one of three Cleveland homers and the Indians beat the Minnesota Twins 6-1.Gomes snapped an 0-for-27 hitless skid in the third inning with a double that went off the foot of Minnesota starter Kyle Gibson and trickled into the outfield through a hole at shortstop. Two innings later, he was carted off the field with a right shoulder injury.Running out a grounder, Gomes stepped awkwardly on first base as he tried to avoid the swipe tag of first baseman Kennys Vargas, who was pulled off the bag on the throw from third baseman Eduardo Nunez. Gomes landed on his shoulder as he tumbled to the ground.As far as I know its kind of like a shoulder separation, he said. Im going to Cleveland to be checked out and well know more later.Manager Terry Francona said Gomes, who has started 63 games behind the plate, will end up on the disabled list with a corresponding roster move forthcoming, most likely a recall of Roberto Perez, who left Triple-A Columbus game Sunday.Things like this happen, Francona said. Hopefully, youre prepared so it doesnt get in the way of what youre trying to do.Chris Gimenez had two RBI off the bench as the division-leading Indians won for just the third time in eight games.Gimenez replaced Gomes and hit a two-run single in the sixth for a 4-0 lead.Its extremely unfortunately for the team, for him number one, but my heart goes out to the guy, Gimenez said. He literally cannot get a break.Tomlin (10-2), who gave up eight runs -- including a season-high five earned -- in 4 2/3 innings against Detroit in his previous outing July 6, looked more like the pitcher that had six straight quality starts before that outing. He allowed six hits and struck out four against the Twins.Minnesota had two runners on in the first, but just three over the next four innings as Tomlin breezed through the Minnesota lineup. He retired 11 straight before Max Kepler homered in the sixth.I think mainly the offense put up enough runs and just let me go out there and settle in a little bit, he said. We were able to execute pitches when we needed to.Gibson (2-6) allowed a season-high 10 hits and four earned runs in six innings. He struck out four.We were going to see how aggressive they were going to be, Gibson said. They really showed more patience today than we probably expected.Napoli homered into the second deck in left field for a 1-0 lead in the second. It was his 20th of the season -- and second in three games -- to tie Carlos Santana for the team lead.Three straight two-out singles by Cleveland in the fifth inning increased the lead to 2-0 when Francisco Lindors RBI single scored Santana.Tyler Naquin homered in the eighth and Jason Kipnis in the ninth.TRAINERS ROOMIndians: RHP Tommy Hunter was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a non-displaced fracture in his lower back. Cleveland recalled RHP Cody Anderson from Triple-A Columbus to replace him. Francona said Hunter was carrying his child during the All-Star break and tripped on a stair, injuring his back protecting the child. Hunter still felt pain while throwing Saturday and an MRI found the fracture.Twins: General manager Terry Ryan said 3B Trevor Plouffe, on the disabled list since July 2 with a fractured left rib, is making progress, but theres still some things when hes sleeping and moving.UP NEXTIndians: Corey Kluber (9-8, 3.61), who earned the win at the All-Star Game with a scoreless inning, takes to the mound Monday in Kansas City against the Royals Edinson Volquez (8-8, 4.85). Since June 5, Kluber is 5-2 with a 2.79 ERA, allowing more than two earned runs just twice.Twins: Coming off consecutive quality starts, Ricky Nolasco (4-7, 5.22) is scheduled to be on the mound as the Twins open a three-game series Monday in Detroit. Matt Boyd (0-2, 5.77) is scheduled to start for the Tigers.Joe Thomas Youth Jersey . The 18-year-old American had five birdies in her bogey-free round for a 17-under total of 196. Lee held the overnight lead but mixed three birdies with two bogeys for a 70. Greedy Williams Jersey .ca! Hi Kerry, Its another day and here we are looking at another dubious hit to the head. In this case Blue Jackets forward Brandon Dubinsky elbowed Saku Koivu in the head about a second after he dished off the puck to a teammate, knocking him unconscious. http://www.footballbrownsnflprostore.com/Youth-Austin-Seibert-Elite-Jersey/ . 24 Baylor in a Big 12 clash between teams trending in opposite directions. Andrew Wiggins made 10-of-12 from the foul line and scored 17 for Kansas (14-4, 5-0 Big 12), which capped a stretch of four straight games against ranked opponents unscathed. Odell Beckham Jr Jersey .J. -- Marshawn Lynch said Thursday it will be good to get back to football after the Seattle quiet talking running back wrapped up his final mandatory media session of Super Bowl week. Jim Brown Jersey . DAmigo scored twice in regulation and added the shootout winner as the Toronto Marlies edged the San Antonio Rampage 5-4 in American Hockey League action.A return to the Kohl Center is welcomed by No. 9 Wisconsin.Wisconsin hosts Chicago State (1-0) on Thursday night (8 ET) on its home court in Madison, Wis., looking to rebound from a loss at Creighton.The Badgers (1-1) will attempt to improve ball handling and 3-point shooting that eluded them, at junctures, earlier this week.Creighton took advantage of Wisconsin turnovers on Tuesday night in a 79-67 win at CenturyLink Center in Omaha, Neb., as the No. 22 Bluejays scored 26 points off of 16 Badgers turnovers. The matchup between the teams was part of the Gavitt Tipoff Games, a tournament which features Big Ten Conference and Big East Conference teams.The Badgers will be looking for more from their seniors.Wisconsin senior guard Bronson Koenig scored a game-high 21 points against Creighton, but also had four turnovers. Senior forward Nigel Hayes added 16 points against Creighton but relied heavily on perimeter jumpers that werent falling.Koenig and Hayes combined were 6 of 20 from 3-point range for Wisconsin, which finished 28.2 percent (11 of 39) overall from 3-point range in the setback. The Badgers missed 22 of their final 25 attempts from long range against the Bluejays.The Badgers outrebounded the Bluejays 42-27, but lacked success with an inside attack on offense, collecting 4-of-5 free throws in the setback.Sophomore F Ethan Happ, who earned Big Ten freshman of the year honors last season with 12.4 points per game, scored seven points against Creighton. He had four turnovers.Wisconsin coach Greg Gard said the road effort would serve as a teaching moment in the early season.I thought at times we shoowed some very uncharacteristic handling of possessions where we got disheveled at times, Gard said.dddddddddddd But I thought coming here to start the year would be good, that wed learn a lot from this. We definitely will.The next test is from Chicago State, a team playing eight of its first 10 games on the road in regular-season action. Chicago State secured a 97-89 victory against NCAA Division III opponent Illinois Tech on Nov. 12.Chicago State went 4-28 overall last season, and finished eighth in the eight-team Western Athletic Conference with a 0-14 record.Senior guard Clemmye Owens V is fresh off a strong performance in the Cougars win against Illinois Tech. Owens scored 26 points and drilled 5-of-6 baskets from 3-point range. Owens, who averaged 9.1 ppg last season, is a transfer player from Bethune-Cookman.Tracy Dildy is working his seventh season as head coach and was named Chicago States athletic director in July 2016.Dildy said hes eager to see how the Cougars respond with three veterans in the starting lineup. Senior swingman Trayvon Palmer averaged a team-leading 7.8 rebounds per game and 9.5 ppg last season, and senior guard Fred Sims Jr. (10.9 ppg) is Chicago States returning scoring leader.These young men are focused, they are really motivated -- last season really left a bad taste in their mouths, for both of them, Dildy said of Palmer and Sims.The Wisconsin game could be a really big game for us. I think our guys are really looking (forward) to that game. ' ' '
