Escobar went 1-for-3 with a solo homer Saturday during the Twins' 5-2 loss to the Royals.

Escobar hit a laser off Jake Junis to tie the game in the third inning. His blast marked his 18th of the season and fifth in September, during which he's now 12-for-36 with 13 RBI. Still, it's uncertain that he's done enough to justify anything more than part-time duty after Miguel Sano (shin) returns from the disabled list, likely in the coming days.
