He went 3-5 with 3 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Tom Candiotti earned the win to go to 8-4. He allowed 3 earned runs on 9 hits, with 3 walks and 7 strikeouts. The Indians go to 27-30, putting them 4th in the AL East Division.

The Indians got a big at-bat from left fielder Joe Carter. For the game, Carter went 1-5 with a triple, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. In the bottom of the first, with runners on 1st and 3rd, he stroked a 2-run triple. His 2nd triple of the season gave Cleveland a 2-0 lead.
