Cleveland dropped the finale of a three-game series with the Tigers 4-2 on Thursday night as Parker Messick allowed four runs in five innings to take his first major-league loss. The Guardians never led, falling behind 2-0 in the first inning. They got on the board in the second on an RBI double by C.J. Kayfus and José Ramírez got them to within 4-2 with a run-scoring double in the eighth inning.

The Rangers, already eliminated from postseason contention, lost for the ninth time in their last 10 games when they fell to the Minnesota Twins 4-0 on Thursday in their home finale. Texas mustered just three hits and Tyler Mahle took the loss after allowing a leadoff homer to Minnesota’s Byron Buxton — the only run he allowed over his five innings of work.

Right-hander Slade Cecconi (7-6) comes off seven shutout innings in a win at Minnesota on Saturday and has a 4.15 ERA and 1.18 WHIP in 22 starts and 128 innings this season. Texas gives the ball to rookie right-hander Jack Leiter (9-10), who has a 3.92 ERA and 1.31 WHIP in 28 starts and 144.2 innings.
