Clutch Hitting Delivers Win for Indians
The inspired effort of Kansas City catcher Mike Meyerhoff was not enough to prevent a loss, 7-4, to the Cleveland Indians. Meyerhoff went 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 runs. Cleveland reliever Hector Guerrero was the winner. His record is now 3-1. Chris Irvin took the loss. Jorge Reyes, credited with the save, is now 3 for 4 in save opportunities.

Runs were scarce in this one. So, Hiroshige Yamada's at-bat in the top of the eighth was vitally important. With one out, the Cleveland catcher reached on an error by the SS, driving in 1 run, to give his team a 2-1 lead.

"When this team comes together and plays the way we can, we can compete with anyone," said Yamada. "I think we're going to keep proving that."

The win puts Cleveland at 35-75.
