Morales Delivers Go-Ahead Homer For Twins In Indians Victory
In a dramatic late inning reversal, Jose Morales hit a curveball over the left field fence in the eighth to lift Minnesota to a 9-8 win over Cleveland. Morales drove in four runs, including a two-run single earlier, as Cleveland blew a slim lead in the seventh with Rod Carew’s pinch-hit single tying the game. Morales explained he was seeking a fastball but connected on the breaking ball, while Sid Monge admitted the super pitch to Carew. The day’s other AL results included Milwaukee’s 9-1 win over Toronto, Texas over Chicago 1-0, and Kansas City 4 Detroit 2. In the NL, Chicago beat Atlanta 12-8 and St Louis topped Houston 11-9.
