Solo homer in win Gordon went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Orioles.
Impact Gordon launched a solo shot in the seventh inning for the Twins' first score of the game. It turned out to be the first of four runs Minnesota would score late to come back and win the game. It was his second home run this week and his fifth of the year. Gordon may have earned more consistent playing time with a good performance after recording just one official at-bat in the team's previous three games. The outfielder is now slashing .263/.305/.407 for the season.

Heads to bench Gordon is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.
Impact Gordon started seven consecutive games in the outfield and went 5-for-22 with two home runs and three RBI before sitting out the second half of Tuesday's doubleheader. He'll now find himself on the bench for the second game in a row, and he could find himself as the odd man out of the lineup for Minnesota with Jorge Polanco having returned from the injured list. The addition of Polanco could leave fewer starts available for Alex Kirilloff at first base, in which case Kirilloff could see more time in left field at Gordon's expense.

Not starting nightcap Gordon is out of the lineup for Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader at Cleveland.

Blasts third homer Gordon went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Monday's 11-1 win over the Guardians. He also reached base on a hit by pitch.
Impact Gordon's home run to deep right field built the Twins' lead to seven runs after six innings and effectively salted the game away. He'll be in the lineup for the seventh consecutive contest in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader in Cleveland, occupying left field while batting seventh. Expect Gordon to continue serving as the Twins' primary left fielder while Trevor Larnach is likely out for the next six weeks after undergoing core-muscle surgery.

Nabs fifth straight start Gordon will start in left field and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Rockies.
Impact Gordon will remain in the lineup for the fifth straight game after going 3-for-12 with a solo home run across the Twins' previous four contests. While Trevor Larnach (core) is on the 10-day injured list, Gordon looks like he'll occupy at least a strong-side platoon role in the Minnesota outfield.

Accounts for only run in win Gordon went 1-for-3 with a solo home run Thursday in a 1-0 victory versus Cleveland.
Impact Gordon smashed a 422-foot solo shot in the third inning that held up as the only run of the contest to give Minnesota the win. The long ball was just his second of the season and his first since May 29. Gordon doesn't have much power, but he's hit pretty well in June with a .289 average over 38 at-bats.

Exits with tight hamstring Gordon left Saturday's game against the Rays due to right hamstring tightness, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.
Impact Gordon went 1-for-3 with a walk prior to his exit. It's not yet clear if his injury will turn out to be serious enough to require a trip to the injured list.

Back to bench Gordon is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Yankees, Marly Rivera of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Gordon had started in nine of the last 11 games, but he's likely to see his playing time take a hit with Max Kepler (personal) coming off the restricted list to begin the week. Though he's seen most of his time in the outfield of late, the 26-year-old has experience at both middle-infield spots, but his opportunities there could soon become scarce as well with Carlos Correa (illness) on track to return from the COVID-19-related injured list Wednesday.
