CLEVELAND -- Paul Molitor has learned a major league manager can never relax.Molitor watched his Minnesota team nearly blow an eight-run lead before the Twins hung on to beat the Cleveland Indians 10-6 Tuesday night.Im not sure exactly how to verbalize what transpired there, he said. It was a good tester for our guys and we found a way to win.Minnesota rookie Max Kepler homered for the fourth time in two games. He hit his fourth two-run drive of the series in the third inning, two batters after Brian Doziers two-run shot.The Twins also scored four times in the fourth against Carlos Carrasco (7-5).Any notion the Twins would cruise to a win ended when the Indians scored six times in the fifth and chased starter Kyle Gibson, who took an 8-0 lead into the inning.Carlos Santana and Mike Napoli each hit a two-run homer. Francisco Lindor had an RBI single before Lonnie Chisenhalls RBI double finished Gibson.I dont know if I ever saw it quite this way, Molitor said. You always imagine worst-case scenarios and how to be prepared. When the Indians get things going they can score in a hurry just like a lot of teams, so youre always guarded.Ryan Pressly (6-5), who retired Napoli with two on to end the sixth, pitched 1 1/3 scoreless innings.Gibson was three outs from qualifying for what appeared to be an easy win, but Cleveland sent 11 batters to the plate in the fifth. Gibson allowed six runs in 4 2/3 innings.Im not really sure what happened, honestly, he said.Minnesota, in last place in the AL Central, is 7-4 against first-place Cleveland this season. The loss narrowed Clevelands lead over Detroit to three games.I dont know what they do against everyone else, but theyve played us pretty darn well, Indians manager Terry Francona said.Kepler, born in Germany, hit a trio of two-run homers with six RBI in Mondays 12-5 win. He walked three times Tuesday and leads AL rookies in homers (15) and RBI (46).Another good night, Molitor said. His swings locked in. Its fun to watch a young kid figure things out.Eduardo Escobar hit a two-run homer for Minnesota in the ninth. Dozier had three RBI and Miguel Sano added a two-run double.Joe Mauer, who had four hits Monday, doubled twice and drove in a run.Carrasco allowed a career-high eight runs in 3 2/3 innings on a tough day for Clevelands rotation. Danny Salazar was placed on the 15-day disabled list with right elbow inflammation.Napolis home run traveled an estimated 454 feet and landed three rows from the top of the bleachers in left field.RISING ROOKIEKepler, who lives in Berlin, was deluged with congratulatory texts about Mondays performance. I enjoyed all the attention and the love from my family and friends, he said before Tuesdays game. Im going to try my best to represent European baseball with honor.TRAINERS ROOMTwins: 3B Trevor Plouffe (broken left rib), on the disabled list since July 2, began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Rochester.Indians: RHP Tommy Hunter (broken vertebrae) threw off a mound.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- Every time Kansas seemed to have any momentum against Memphis, they gave the ball away.Six times, as a matter of fact.And the Tigers didnt hesitate to seize the opportunities.Memphis dominated the game defensively, grabbed an early lead and coasted to a 43-7 win over Kansas on Saturday, sending the Jayhawks to their 39th consecutive road loss.Ive never been in a game where we even came close to having that many turnovers, Kansas coach David Beaty said. Man, thats a bunch, and it continued to happen throughout the day.Riley Ferguson threw for 189 yards and two touchdowns and Jake Elliott kicked a trio of field goals -- including a 50-yarder -- as Memphis built an early lead and coasted to victory.Ferguson completed 15 of 24 passes for Memphis (2-0), the bulk of his passing yards coming on an 84-yard completion to Anthony Miller for the games first score. In addition to his 50-yarder, Elliott converted kicks of 41 and 42 yards. Memphis showed no ill-effects of a bye week after winning its opener 35-17 over Southeast Missouri State.We talked a lot about starting fast, and were really pleased with our guys preparation, Memphis coach Mike Norvell said. I thought we started fast. Defense did an incredible job. They were completely dominant.The Jayhawks, (1-2) struggled offensively throughout, although they managed 314 yards of total offense. Any momentum, though, was thwarted by the Jayhawks four fumbles and two interceptions in the game.A key swing came when Memphis reached the Kansas 13 in the closing minutes of the half. A sack and a tackle for loss, plus a couple of penalties put Memphis near midfield.Then Memphis muffed the punt attempt, giving Kansas the ball at the Tiger 38 trailing 26-7.On the first Kansas play, Memphis defensive tackle Jonathan Wilson intercepted the ball and returned it 61 yards for a touchdown and Memphis carried a 33-7 lead at the break.It shocked me big time, the soft-spoken Wilson said of the play, adding he didnt see any Jayhawks in front of him after he picked off the pass from Kansas quarterback Montell Cozart. I was thinking: `Dont let me get caught.ddddddddddddhe Jayhawks never came close to Wilson and never came close to threatening the Tigers in the second half after Memphis added Elliotts 50-yard field goal and a fourth-quarter 8-yard scoring run by Tony Pollard.Kansas only touchdown came on a third-and-1 play when Khalil Herbert broke the first wave of Memphis defenders bunched at the line of scrimmage and went 66 yards for a second-quarter touchdown.That was good to see for our line, our guys up front, continuing to work and continuing to push, Beaty said. It was a short-yardage situation. Hes a fast kid, and it was good to see him get out.TAKEAWAYS:KANSAS: The Jayhawks again struggled to open the game. Kansas, which let Ohio build a 22-0 start last week early in the second quarter, trailed Memphis 19-0.MEMPHIS: With the victory, first-year Memphis coach Mike Norvell became the first Tiger coach in history to start his inaugural campaign 2-0. Only two other Memphis coaches won the opener in their first season, and both -- Rey Dempsey in 1984 and Lester Barnard in 1922 -- dropped the second game.ROAD UNKIND: No current Jayhawk has won a game away from Lawrence. The last road win was 34-7 at Texas-El Paso on Sept. 12, 2009.IF YOU CANT JOIN `EM, BEAT `EM: The Tigers played a Big 12 Conference School for the first time since Memphis was eliminated two weeks ago from consideration as a possible expansion target for the conference.FINAL WORD: I still think that we actually have a pretty good football team, if we can just get out of our own way. .Weve just got a lot of things that were having to learn right now that we should already know. -- Kansas coach David BeatyUP NEXT:KANSAS: The Jayhawks have a bye next week before returning to the road to face Texas Tech on Sept. 29.
