July 31, 2006: Indians 7 Red Sox 5
Thursday, August 02, 2007
| David Wells pitches well for 5 innings in his return from the disabled list, but it all goes to hell in the 6th. Wells actually no hit the Indians until there were 2 out in the 5th, when Hector Luna broke it up with a single into center field. Wells was out of gas though by the time the 6th rolls around, and he allows 2 runs on 2 hits and 2 walks before being pulled in favor of Kyle Snyder with the bases loaded. Snyder faces Jhonny Peralta, and wouldn't you know that Peralta plants one in the seats for a grand slam home run and a 6-2 lead. The Sox would get 3 back in the 7th on a Crisp RBI single and a Papi 2 run shot, but they couldn't get enough to tie it and the Indians walk away with a 7-5 win. |

WEB GEMS- Bot 5th: Grady Sizemore robbed David Ortiz of a Homerun!
In a close game it was the Cleveland Indians 7, the Boston Red Sox 5 at Fenway
Park.
Cleveland brought 6 runs across the plate in the top of the 6th inning when
they had 4 base hits. The key at-bat was by Jhonny Peralta who quieted the
home crowd when he launched a Grand Slam homerun (his 16th of the season).
Cleveland banged out 9 on the night.
Paul Byrd(7-6) was the winner allowing 4 runs in 6 and 1/3 innings. Tom Mastny
earned the save, his 1st. David Wells(1-1) suffered the loss. He
surrendered 4 hits and 3 walks in 5 and 1/3 innings.
