The Cleveland fans didn't appreciate the big day Grantham had. He stroked a base-hit in the 3rd inning, bombed a two-run dinger in the 4th inning and cleared the fences for a two-run home run (his 13th of the season) in the 6th inning. Babe Adams earned the save with a perfect ninth, his 8th save. Jim Devlin(7-7) went 6 and 1/3 innings allowing 10 runs for the victory. Dwight Gooden(4-6) was the loser in relief. His ERA ballooned from 5.09 to 5.64 as he allowed 5 runs without retiring a batter. Grantham said, 'It was just all timing. I had pretty good rhythm at the plate tonight. You've got to take advantage of mistakes when you can. A couple pitches were definitely up a little bit - right in my zone.' |
