Indians rout Yankees as Irabu rattled in Cleveland
Cleveland beat New York 11 0 at Jacobs Field before 43104 fans to split the four game series. Hideki Irabu failed to locate his pitches allowing back to back homers to Manny Ramirez and Mark Whiten in the second inning and a Ramirez shot in the third. Ramirez said he got lucky on the second homer while Irabu blamed poor location and a nonfastball sequence. Yankees manager Joe Torre noted the velocity and control issues as Irabu exited after three innings.
