Reliever Dan Spillner's three shutout innings enabled Indians' starter Len Barker to conquer the Rangers, his ex-teammates, for the seventh time in eight decisions, 4-3. Joe Charboneau drove in two runs for the Indians with a sacrifice fly in the first inning and a double in the third. Rick Manning capped the Tribe's three-run surge with a two-run triple in the third off loser Frank Tanana. [The Sporting News]
