CLEVELAND (AP) — Garrett Hampson drove in two runs and Luis Arraez and Bryan De La Cruz each had three hits as the Miami Marlins completed a doubleheader sweep of the Cleveland Guardians with a 3-2 win in the second game. Hampson’s single in the sixth put Miami ahead for good at 2-1, helping spoil Cleveland manager Terry Francona’s 64th birthday. Arraez went 4 for 8 on the day and is hitting a major league-best .444 as he seeks a second straight batting title. De La Cruz had two hits and homered in the first game when Miami cruised to a 6-1 victory. NL Cy Young winner Sandy Alcantara was scratched with mild biceps tendinitis.
