Pedro Hernandez held the Indians to two runs over five innings, providing some relief to a bullpen that had thrown 7 1/3 innings a day earlier, and the Twins took Sunday’s finale, 5-3, at Progressive Field.

Jose Reyes will spend at least one more game with the Buffalo Bisons before making his long-awaited return to the Major Leagues.

It’s not Gerrit Cole and Trevor Bauer, but for the second time in as many visits to the College World Series finals, UCLA has a winning one-two punch atop its rotation.

While cautioning not to overreact to Matt Kemp’s four strikeouts Saturday night in the first game of his rehab assignment with Triple-A Albuquerque, Dodgers manager Don Mattingly also said Sunday that Kemp will be eased back into action upon his return.
