Torborg says he will resign after season amid Indians turmoil
The Indians beat the Detroit Tigers 8-4 in 11 innings as Torborg warned he would resign at season end after receiving an underwhelming offer to Bob Lemon. Torborg complained of a lack of loyalty from the organization while Lemon, recently fired by the Yankees, eyed a potential return. Norris delivered the decisive 11th inning triple, with LeFlore making a spectacular catch to deny an earlier big hit.
