Indians Rally Past Athletics as Romano Hits First Grand Slam
Cleveland catcher John Romano belted his first major league grand slam in a 12-7 nightcap victory over Kansas City after an earlier 3-0 loss. Romano was booed before the homer but ignored the jeers to drive in seven Indians runs as Barry Latman closed with four scoreless innings. The twin bill opened with Orlando Pena allowing two hits in seven, while Birdie Tebbetts missed part of the second game due to a fever, with George Stuckland taking over. The Indians sit 15 games back, opening a four game set with the Dodgers.
