Extra-base hits propelled the Indians to an 8-2 pounding of the Royals. The Tribe tallied four times in their first turn at bat on a double by Andre Thornton, Alan Bannister's two-run double and a double by Rick Manning. Mike Hargrove drilled a leadoff double in the third and scored on a pair of balks by Bud Black, who was making his first big league start. Toby Harrah also belted a solo homer in the seventh.
