Kody Clemens' walk‑off slam gives Twins 4‑3 win over Royals

Kody Clemens hit a walk‑off grand slam with two outs in the ninth inning, delivering a 4‑3 victory for the Minnesota Twins over the Kansas City Royals at Target Field in Minneapolis. The slam, a 407‑foot blast to right‑center, was Clemens' second career grand slam and the sixth walk‑off slam in Twins history.

Royals left‑hander Noah Cameron threw eight shutout innings, allowing just one hit and two walks while striking out seven, extending his personal streak to 16 consecutive scoreless innings. He carried a no‑hit bid into the seventh before Ryan Jeffers broke it up with a leadoff single. Twins reliever Yoendrys Gómez pitched a scoreless ninth. The win moved Minnesota to a 55‑55 record and a 10‑2‑1 stretch in their last 13 series, while Kansas City fell to 46‑64.

The game was part of a broader series in which the Twins have won six of eight outings, keeping them within striking distance of a wild‑card spot in the American League.
