    Ever so gradually, the Minnesota Twins are finally starting to show signs of the team that was expected to contend for a third straight division title.

    Jason Kubel had a two-run double in the seventh inning that lifted the Twins to a 4-3 victory over the Cleveland Indians on Sunday, Minnesota's third straight win after a putrid start.

    Carl Pavano (2-2) gave up three runs on six hits in seven innings and Justin Morneau added two hits and two RBIs for the Twins, who took both games of the rain-shortened series to win their first series of the season.

    Joe Mauer (leg weakness), Tsuyoshi Nishioka (broken leg) and Delmon Young (ribs) are still out with injuries, but the Twins have won five of their last seven games after a 4-10 start.
