Cleveland Guardians and Minnesota Twins head-to-head record
The Cleveland Guardians have won three of their five head-to-head matches against the Minnesota Twins. On August 11, 2024, Cleveland defeated Minnesota 5-3 and 2-1 in a doubleheader sweep, demonstrating their capacity to win close games. However, the Twins showed their offensive prowess in earlier games, winning 6-3 on August 10 and 4-2 on August 9. Cleveland beat the Twins 5-2 in May 2024, demonstrating they can limit their offense. Given these outcomes, we may expect another difficult, possibly low-scoring game where Cleveland may bank on their momentum and Minnesota will react with their balanced offense.
