Polanco went 2-for-4 on Sunday with two runs scored and a solo shot, his first major league home run, in a win over the Indians.
Getting just his second start since being called back up from Triple-A earlier in the month, Polanco certainly made the most of his opportunity. With Twins manager Paul Molitor acknowledging after the game that both Brian Dozier and Trevor Plouffe were not quite at 100 percent right now, Polanco could see a short-term uptick in his playing time.
