Ray Fosse drove in four runs with two singles and a sacrifice bunt and Orlando Gonzalez drove in the first two runs of his major league career as the Indians piled up 15 hits and defeated the Royals, 11-8. However the Indians, after building up a 9-0 lead, almost blew the verdict when the Royals exploded for eight runs in the fourth inning. After an error and seven straight singles accounted for seven runs, Jim Bibby came in with none out, yielded a sacrifice fly and then cut off the Royals' rally.
