Alomar's grand slam caps Indians rally in 10-8 win
Sandy Alomar Jr. delivered a two-out, two-strike grand slam in the ninth to cap a five-run comeback as the Cleveland Indians stunned the Tampa Bay Devil Rays 10-8. Jose Mesa earned the win, sweeping the three-game set after overcoming a 6-0 deficit and tying the Indians' late-game upsets tradition. Ex-Indian Paul Sorrento hit the first Tampa Bay slam in history, going 4-for-5 with six RBIs in a bittersweet day for both clubs.
