Otto Velez tied an A.L. record by belting four homers in a doubleheader and came within one of the record for RBIs, driving in 10 runs, to spark the Blue Jays to a 9-8, 7-2 sweep of the Indians. In the first game, Velez blasted a grand slam in the first inning and a two-run shot in the eighth before breaking an 8-8 tie with a leadoff homer in the 10th.

In the second game, Velez drilled a three-run round-tripper in the first inning. The Tribe hit five homers in the first game -- bases-empty shots by Jorge Orta, Toby Harrah and Cliff Johnson and two-run blows by Gary Alexander and Mike Hargrove. [The Sporting News]
