Kyle Manzardo was instrumental in the Cleveland Guardians’ dramatic 5-4 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday, hitting a two-run homer and delivering the game-winning RBI in the 10th inning. This win not only clinched a series sweep for the Guardians but also highlighted their resilience, overcoming a late-game scare where closer Emmanuel Clase allowed three runs in the ninth, resulting in his second blown save of the season.

In the extra inning, Jhonkensy Noel was the automatic runner who advanced to third base after a groundout by José Ramírez. Manzardo's fly ball to left field brought Noel home, sealing the game. The Guardians’ Joey Cantillo, who earned his first save of the season, faced some trouble in the bottom of the tenth but ultimately secured the win with a double play and a flyout.
