Andrés Giménez lined a Caleb Thielbar fastball into right field for a single, scoring courtesy runner José Ramírez from second base, and the Guardians began hugging each other after their 3-2 10-inning victory clinched a spot in the postseason for the sixth time in nine years.

The Guardians are also in position to clinch a first-round bye, a reward given to the top two teams in both leagues. Cleveland has competition with the Yankees for the top overall spot in the AL.

Andrés Giménez singled home José Ramírez from second base in the 10th inning as the Cleveland Guardians clinched a playoff berth in dramatic, fitting fashion, beating the Minnesota Twins 3-2.
