AROUND THE HORN

Indians: Corey Kluber had the hard cast protecting his broken right arm removed, and the two-time Cy Young winner is healing as hoped. Kluber underwent imaging tests Thursday that showed that his ulna is mending properly. Indians manager Terry Francona said Kluber can begin range of motion and that he will be re-examined in two weeks. The righthander broke his arm when he was struck flush by a line drive hit by the Marlins’ Brian Anderson on May 1.

Mets: Slugger Yoenis Cespedes is expected to miss the entire season after having ankle surgery. The team announced Monday that the oft-injured outfielder had broken his right ankle in an accident on his ranch. Cespedes hadn’t played this season while recovering from surgery on both heels. The two-time All-Star played just 38 games last year.

Rays: Kevin Kiermaier legged out a three-run, inside-the-park homer when two outfielders collided as the Rays beat the slumping Indians 7-2 and improved baseball’s best road record to 16-7. With the Rays leading 3-0 in the sixth, Kiermaier hit a sinking liner to left-center. Rookie left fielder Oscar Mercado and center fielder Leonys Martin converged on the ball before slamming into each other as they each made all-out attempts at catching it. As the two Indians players lay helplessly in the grass, the ball ricocheted toward the leftfield corner and Kiermaier easily circled the bases.

Twins: Miguel Sano and Jonathan Schoop each hit two of the team’s franchiserecord-tying eight home runs, and the Twins hammered Matt Harvey and the Angels 16-7. C.J. Cron homered, doubled twice and singled twice for Minnesota. Max Kepler, Jorge Polanco and Eddie Rosario also homered. It was the third time in franchise history — dating to their days as the Washington Senators — and second time this season the Twins homered eight times. Before doing it April 20 against Baltimore, the last time it happened was in 1963.

Yankees: CC Sabathia’s ailing right knee landed him on the 10-day injured list, but the Yankees don’t expect the star lefty to be sidelined for long. The 38year-old Sabathia said he started feeling pain “a few starts ago” but was hopeful a cortisone shot and a few days rest would keep him off the IL . ... Mychal Givens walked Aaron Hicks with the bases loaded to force in the tiebreaking run in the ninth inning, and the Yankees defeated the Orioles 6-5 to complete a fourgame sweep. Clint Frazier and Luke Voit homered for the Yankees, who have hit 35 home runs in going 10-2 against the Orioles, outscoring Baltimore 8650.

Marlins: Garrett Cooper hit a grand slam with two outs in the ninth inning, and the Marlins won their sixth in a row, rallying past the Tigers 5-2 to finish a terrible homestand for the Tigers. The Tigers wrapped up an 0-9 stay at Comerica Park against the Astros, A’s and Marlins. The Marlins, who had the worst record in the majors last week, extended the longest active winning streak in the big leagues.
