MINNEAPOLIS -- The Cleveland Indians seek to extend their winning streak over the Minnesota Twins to six games when the teams meet at Target Field in the second contest of a three-game set.The American League Central Division-leading Indians (82-58) dropped eight of their first 12 meetings with the last-place Twins (52-89) before their recent tear.The teams traded leads through five innings in Fridays series opener before the bullpens combined to toss nine shutout innings and Clevelands left the park with a 5-4 victory.Clevelands Mike Napoli went 89 at bats between home runs 29 and 30 but has three in his last five games, including Friday nights 456-foot monster shot to Target Fields upper deck in left.I was going through a period where I was just trying to grind my way through at bats, Napoli said. But Ive been feeling better and better, at-bat-by-at-bat, so I feel like Im going in the right direction.The timing could not be better for the Indians as they fight to maintain a six-game lead over Detroit in the division standings and Napoli knows it.Thats what you want coming down the stretch, Napoli said. Im in that position to where I can, anytime, change a game so Im not going up there just trying to hit singles.For the Twins, its Byron Buxton who is heating up. The speedy center fielder hit another home run Friday and is batting .433 with four doubles, five home runs, 12 RBI and 12 runs scored in eight games since he was recalled from Triple-A Rochester on Sept. 1.I just think that hes trying to continue to find ways to be a better hitter, Twins manager Paul Molitor said. But hes getting more results and hes getting an opportunity so well just keep running him out there.Mike Clevinger will be on the hill for the Indians on Saturday as Cleveland tries for the second time to use a series of relievers to assume the No. 5 starter spot Josh Tomlin was unable to secure. The Indians hope to get more than the 43 pitches they received from Clevinger on Monday. Pavel Zacha Jersey .
