Miguel Dilone slashed two doubles and drove in three runs to pace the Indians to an 8-5 victory over the A's. The Tribe tallied four times in the second inning on a run-scoring fielder's choice grounder by Mike Fischlin, two-run two-bagger by Dilone and a sacrifice fly by Toby Harrah that came after Dilone stole third. The Indians scored twice in the sixth on consecutive RBI doubles by Fischlin and Dilone. [The Sporting News]
