Coming off the disabled list, Dave Duncan went to bat for the first time since July 28 and smashed a three-run homer to start the Indians off to a 5-0 victory over the Twins behind the three-hit pitching of Gaylord Perry. Duncan's homer in the first inning followed passes to Oscar Gamble and John Ellis. [The Sporting News]
