Pitching eight shutout innings, Dennis Eckersley gained his fifth victory against one defeat when the Indians rolled over the Brewers, 9-2. Jackie Brown replaced the 20-year-old rookie righthander in the ninth and gave up the Brewers' runs on a walk to Bobby Darwin and homer by Darrell Porter. John Lowenstein, Boog Powell and Buddy Bell each batted in two runs as the Indians extended their winning streak to five games. [The Sporting News]
