MINNEAPOLIS -- Yan Gomes found it difficult on Sunday to celebrate the Cleveland Indians win with his right arm in a sling.Josh Tomlin pitched 7 2/3 strong innings, Mike Napoli hit one of three Cleveland homers and the Indians beat the Minnesota Twins 6-1.Gomes snapped an 0-for-27 hitless skid in the third inning with a double that went off the foot of Minnesota starter Kyle Gibson and trickled into the outfield through a hole at shortstop. Two innings later, he was carted off the field with a right shoulder injury.Running out a grounder, Gomes stepped awkwardly on first base as he tried to avoid the swipe tag of first baseman Kennys Vargas, who was pulled off the bag on the throw from third baseman Eduardo Nunez. Gomes landed on his shoulder as he tumbled to the ground.As far as I know its kind of like a shoulder separation, he said. Im going to Cleveland to be checked out and well know more later.Manager Terry Francona said Gomes, who has started 63 games behind the plate, will end up on the disabled list with a corresponding roster move forthcoming, most likely a recall of Roberto Perez, who left Triple-A Columbus game Sunday.Things like this happen, Francona said. Hopefully, youre prepared so it doesnt get in the way of what youre trying to do.Chris Gimenez had two RBI off the bench as the division-leading Indians won for just the third time in eight games.Gimenez replaced Gomes and hit a two-run single in the sixth for a 4-0 lead.Its extremely unfortunately for the team, for him number one, but my heart goes out to the guy, Gimenez said. He literally cannot get a break.Tomlin (10-2), who gave up eight runs -- including a season-high five earned -- in 4 2/3 innings against Detroit in his previous outing July 6, looked more like the pitcher that had six straight quality starts before that outing. He allowed six hits and struck out four against the Twins.Minnesota had two runners on in the first, but just three over the next four innings as Tomlin breezed through the Minnesota lineup. He retired 11 straight before Max Kepler homered in the sixth.I think mainly the offense put up enough runs and just let me go out there and settle in a little bit, he said. We were able to execute pitches when we needed to.Gibson (2-6) allowed a season-high 10 hits and four earned runs in six innings. He struck out four.We were going to see how aggressive they were going to be, Gibson said. They really showed more patience today than we probably expected.Napoli homered into the second deck in left field for a 1-0 lead in the second. It was his 20th of the season -- and second in three games -- to tie Carlos Santana for the team lead.Three straight two-out singles by Cleveland in the fifth inning increased the lead to 2-0 when Francisco Lindors RBI single scored Santana.Tyler Naquin homered in the eighth and Jason Kipnis in the ninth.TRAINERS ROOMIndians: RHP Tommy Hunter was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a non-displaced fracture in his lower back. Cleveland recalled RHP Cody Anderson from Triple-A Columbus to replace him. Francona said Hunter was carrying his child during the All-Star break and tripped on a stair, injuring his back protecting the child. Hunter still felt pain while throwing Saturday and an MRI found the fracture.Twins: General manager Terry Ryan said 3B Trevor Plouffe, on the disabled list since July 2 with a fractured left rib, is making progress, but theres still some things when hes sleeping and moving.UP NEXTIndians: Corey Kluber (9-8, 3.61), who earned the win at the All-Star Game with a scoreless inning, takes to the mound Monday in Kansas City against the Royals Edinson Volquez (8-8, 4.85). Since June 5, Kluber is 5-2 with a 2.79 ERA, allowing more than two earned runs just twice.Twins: Coming off consecutive quality starts, Ricky Nolasco (4-7, 5.22) is scheduled to be on the mound as the Twins open a three-game series Monday in Detroit.

I got hit. I got hit hard.Fernandez (13-8) allowed six runs and a career-high 12 hits over 5 2/3 innings in the Marlins 8-3 loss.Miami, which committed three errors, has lost seven of eight and fell to .500 for the first time since May 1, which has manager Don Mattingly a bit worried.Im not concerned with our guys, Im concerned with the results, Mattingly said. We talked about it at the break, we were six games over and we didnt think that was going to do it. .... Obviously weve went the other direction. So weve got to get going again.Fernandez, who moved to just 3-6 on the road this season, admitted he wasnt at his best, but gave most of the credit to the Indians offense.These guys and the Cubs -- I think those are the two toughest lineups that I have faced, Fernandez said. They came out and they played baseball the right way and they played better than us. They beat me.Mattingly agreed with his ace.They just did a nice job with him, he said. They kind of jumped him early with the fastball and stayed on him the whole game.Coming off two straight scoreless starts, Fernandez allowed more runs while facing just two batters in Saturdays start than he had over his previous 14 innings.Clevelands recently acquired outfielder Coco Crisp hit a leadoff double to start the game before Jason Kipnis smacked a two-run homer.An inning later, Cleveland tied the game oon back-to-back doubles by Tyler Naquin and Roberto Perez before taking the lead on an RBI single by Carlos Santana in the third.ddddddddddddFive of Clevelands first nine at-bats resulted in extra-base hits, as Fernandez gave up a career-high six over the first three innings.After scoring three runs in the first inning off Trevor Bauer, the Marlins were held scoreless on just one hit over the games final eight innings.Christian Yelich smacked a two-run double and Cleveland native Derek Dietrich hit a sacrifice fly to give the Marlins a 3-0 lead.THE DAY AFTERThe Marlins were unhappy with the umpires during Fridays 6-2 loss. Manager Don Mattingly thought Kipnis struck out on a 3-2 pitch in the first inning, but it was ruled he checked his swing and Cleveland scored three runs. First base coach Perry Hill was ejected in the ninth and Mattingly was still upset following the game.Mattingly took a much calmer approach Saturday.Ive talked to the league and thats just pretty much where Id like to leave it, he said. No reason to keep going. Youre mad about it last night. It doesnt help it today. Its time to move forward.TRAINERS ROOMMarlins: OF Marcell Ozuna (sore left wrist) missed his third straight game.Indians: C Yan Gomes (separated shoulder) was 2 for 3 as the DH for Double-A Akron on Friday.UP NEXTMarlins: RHP Tim Koehler will start the series finale Sunday.
