4 - 22 - 10 at Minnesota W, 8 - 1 7 - 8
If there is one word to desbribe the Tribe so far this season, it would be resiliency. Every time this young team needs a win, they have been able to go out and get it. The trend continued in the series finale against Minnesota as the Indians broke out of a prolonged offensive slump and pounded the Twins.
Cleveland began the scoring early with a couple of ground - rule doubles from Asdrubal Cabrera and Grady Sizemore in the first inning, and they continued it two frames later on a two - run bomb off the bat of Andy Marte. Russell Branyan went on to add his first couple of RBIs on the season, and the Indians were never in danger of losing the game.
The bigger story than the offensive resurgence is the fact that young Mitch Talbot is continuing to dominate opponents' hitters. In this particular contest, Talbot went six innings of one - run ball while only allowing one base hit to earn the second victory of his career.
