CLEVELAND (AP) ― Joe Mauer knows how to break out of a slump.

Mauer, who entered Saturday night’s game in an 0 for 10 skid, had three hits and three RBIs, including a two-run homer, to lead the Minnesota Twins to a 7-4 win over the Cleveland Indians. “I was making good contact,” Mauer said. “I felt pretty good.”

Mauer had an RBI single in Minnesota’s four-run first inning. He also singled in the second and hit a two-run homer in the seventh off Tony Sipp.

Trevor Plouffe’s one-out homer in the sixth off Josh Tomlin (2-3) broke a 4-all tie. Plouffe also had a two-run single in the first.

Brian Duensing (1-2) pitched two scoreless innings as the Twins won for the fourth time in five games. Matt Capps pitched the ninth for his 11th save as Minnesota’s bullpen pitched 4 2/3 innings of one-hit ball.

The Indians have lost six of eight, due primarily to poor starting pitching. Cleveland’s starters are 2-6 with a 9.52 ERA in the last eight games. Following the game the Indians announced outfielder Johnny Damon has been placed on the paternity list to be with his wife and twin daughters.
