A two-run single by Todd Cruz highlighted a three-run the eighth inning and rookie reliever Lamarr Hoyt picked up his first major league victory as the White Sox defeated the Indians, 5-3, snapping the Tribe's winning skein at five games. After a throwing error by third baseman Toby Harrah, a two-base error by center fielder Rick Manning and a wild pitch enabled the White Sox to tie the score at 3-3 in the eighth. Thad Bosley was given an intentional walk 
to fill the bases and Cruz followed with the decisive hit. [The Sporting News]
