CLEVELAND -- The hits and runs just keep on coming for the Minnesota Twins, and that's just fine with manager Paul Molitor.

"We've gotten it going offensively," he said after his team continued its devastating attack on the Cleveland Indians' pitching staff with a 13-5 victory Wednesday night at Progressive Field. "You've got to enjoy these things whenever they come along."

Minnesota has won the first three games of the four-game series, outscoring the Indians 35-16 and out-hitting Cleveland 48-27.

"They've done it to us three days in a row. They've had their way with us and it's not a fluke. They've beat us around," said Indians manager Terry Francona.

Twins starter Tyler Duffey (6-8) gave up five runs and eight hits in six innings, but that was good enough to get the win.

"It almost doesn't matter how you pitch when you score runs like that," Duffey quipped.

Trevor Bauer became the third Cleveland starting pitcher in as many days to get taken to the woodshed by the Minnesota hitters. Bauer (7-5) allowed eight runs, seven earned, on eight hits and five walks in just 2 2/3 innings.

"Obviously the walks hurt, and a bunch of hits on 0-2 counts. We just couldn't let him go any farther," Francona said.

Joe Mauer had his second four-hit game of the series, and he added four RBIs. In the series, Mauer is hitting .667 (10-for-15) with five doubles, a triple, a home run and six RBIs.

"Obviously he's feeling very comfortable at the plate," said Molitor.

"I know I wouldn't want to throw to him now," Duffey said.

Eddie Rosario added three hits and three RBIs for Minnesota. Brian Dozier had a triple, a homer, three runs and three RBIs, and Max Kepler contributed two hits, two runs and two RBIs.

The lone bright spots for Cleveland were Mike Napoli and rookie Tyler Naquin. Napoli hit a solo home run in the sixth inning, the fifth consecutive game in which he has homered. He has 27 home runs overall.

Naquin, on the day he was named the American League's Rookie of the Month for July, belted his 13th home run, a two-run shot in the fifth inning.

The American League Central Division-leading Indians have picked a bad time to lose three games in a row. The second-place Detroit Tigers have won eight in a row to pull within two games of first place. On July 20, the Indians led the division by 7 1/2 games.

"You've got to play through the tough times, because they are inevitable. They happen to everyone," Francona said. "But I'm confident we'll bounce back."

Minnesota is in last place in the AL Central, but the Twins dominated Cleveland. The Twins are 8-4 vs. the Indians and 6-22 against the other three teams in the division.

Cleveland's frustration bubbled over in Wednesday's game as Francona, pitching coach Mickey Callaway and pitcher Corey Kluber, who did not appear in the game, were all ejected in two separate incidents.

The Twins led 8-4 going into the sixth inning, in which each team scored a run, Minnesota on an RBI double by Rosario, and the Indians on Napoli's home run.

Mauer had an RBI triple in the eighth inning, and Dozier added a three-run home run in the ninth.

In the past three games, Indians starting pitchers Danny Salazar, Carlos Carrasco and Bauer combined for a 22.68 ERA, as they allowed 21 earned runs and 23 hits in 8 1/3 innings.

The Twins immediately went to work on Bauer, sending eight men to the plate in the first inning, scoring two runs on a single by Rosario. Mauer's RBI single made it 3-0 in the second inning.

Cleveland reached Duffey for two runs in the second inning. But the Twins sent nine men to the plate in their five-run third inning, in which Bauer was removed from the game and Francona and Callaway were ejected from the game.

With two outs, runners at second and third and the Twins leading 6-2, Kepler hit a sinking fly ball that appeared to be caught by a diving right fielder Lonnie Chisenhall. First base umpire Jim Reynolds, however, ruled it no catch. It was a single, scoring Dozier and Mauer to give Minnesota an 8-2 lead.

The Indians challenged the call, and after a video review the call was upheld. That brought Francona and Callaway both out of the dugout to argue the decision, and both were quickly ejected.

"I knew I'd get tossed because it's automatic if you go out there, but I just needed to express my frustration," Francona said.
