Rocky Colavito blasted a homerun and had 3 RBI and Early Wynn reeled off a
total of 11 strikeouts at Edison Int'l Field as the Cleveland Indians won in
dramatic fashion coming back to beat the Anaheim Angels by the count of 6 to
5.

Cleveland came up with the deciding runs in the top of the 9th inning with 3
runs using 2 hits. Manny Ramirez led off the inning for Cleveland when he
drew a walk. Colavito came next and he laced a base-knock. Eddie Morgan
then clubbed a three-run home run (his first of the season). Jose Mesa was great in relief and recorded his 1st save.

Don Mossi(1-0) got credit for the victory, pitching 1 inning of relief and allowing no runs. Troy Percival(0-1) blew the save chance and was the loser in relief.

After the game, it took a long while before Mike Scioscia emerged from his
office. In a subdued tone he answered only a couple of questions. He
concluded with, 'Fellows, sorry I'm not in a very talkative mood this
afternoon, as I think you'll understand. I'm sure you'll find the banter a
lot more light-hearted over in the Cleveland locker room.'
