05/05/2010 - Cleveland, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Adam Lind hit a two-out two-run homer in the top of the ninth inning, as the Toronto Blue Jays game back to stun the Cleveland Indians, 5-4, and complete the three-game sweep.
Travis Snider and Jose Molina each added an RBI single, while Fred Lewis went 3-for-5 with a pair of doubles and a run scored for the Blue Jays, who swept the Indians in Cleveland for the first time since winning a three-game set from September 9-11, 2002. Toronto has won four straight and six of seven overall.
Brandon Morrow gave up three runs on six hits and four walks with nine strikeouts over 5 1/3 innings, but did not figure in the decision. Jason Frasor (1-1) was credited with the win for tossing 1 1/3 scoreless frames.
Travis Hafner had a solo homer and Luis Valbuena chipped in with an RBI double, but committed a costly error in the ninth inning for Cleveland, which has dropped four in a row and six of seven.
Fausto Carmona took a no-decision after working 6 1/3 innings. The right- hander allowed seven hits, two runs and four walks, while striking out a pair. Chris Perez (0-2) was tagged with the loss for giving up three unearned runs and two hits in 1 2/3 frames.
Trailing 4-2 in the top of the ninth, Perez allowed a two-out double to Lewis, before Aaron Hill's soft grounder went threw the legs of Valbuena at shortstop to plate Lewis and make it a one-run game. Lind then clubbed a 1-2 fastball over the left-field wall to put the Blue Jays in front 5-4.
In the home half, Frasor served up a two-out double to Shin-Soo Choo, then got Jhonny Peralta to bounce out to third to end the game.
Jose Bautista tripled to start the third inning and crossed the plate on Snider's base hit to give Toronto the early lead. But the Indians came back to tie it in the home half on an RBI double by Grady Sizemore.
Hafner's fourth inning leadoff homer into the right-center field seats put Cleveland up 2-1, before Molina evened things in the fifth with a two-out RBI single.
The Indians loaded the bases with nobody out in the sixth and after Valbuena struck out, Mike Redmond chased in a run with a base hit to give Cleveland a 3-2 edge. Shawn Camp then replaced Morrow and got Mark Grudzielanek to ground into an inning-ending 4-6-3 double play.
Valbuena's two-out run-scoring double into the left-field corner in the eighth put the Tribe ahead 4-2.
Game Notes
Toronto split its eight meetings with the Tribe a year ago... Indians shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera missed his second straight game with tightness in his left quadriceps muscle...It was a bittersweet 39th birthday for Redmond, who had an RBI single and drew a walk in three at bats, but left in the seventh inning with right hip tightness.
