Five of rookie Steven Kwan's career-high five RBIs came on his first career grand slam in the eighth inning and Aaron Civale allowed two runs on three hits in five innings as the Guardians beat the Texas Rangers 10-4 on Sunday.
They clinched the division title about 15 minutes before their game ended, when the second-place Chicago White Sox lost to Detroit.
Cleveland scored four runs in the third inning on four singles plus a throwing error and added two in the sixth on Gabriel Arias' triple following fielding errors by middle infielders Corey Seager and Marcus Semien. Civale is 21-0 when provided at least three runs' support. He struck out seven and walked none throwing 75 pitches in his second start since returning from the injured list following forearm inflammation.
As it turned out, Cleveland's kids were more than all right. Maybe no one more so than Kwan, a fifth-round draft choice in 2018 who made the roster in spring training and has become the club's leadoff hitter.
