Cleveland hooks Marlins looking for lead at home
Two-run homer sparks 6-1 win
MIAMI — The Cleveland Indians, outplayed in the opener, came back and simply overwhelmed the Florida Marlins with their pitching, hitting and defense for a 6-1 victory last night that evened the World Series at one game each.
The Associated Press
Sandy Alomar lined a sixth inning, two-run homer and made the best of several big plays by Cleveland fielders. Pitcher Chad Ogea shut down the Marlins into the seventh inning, and Cleveland came through with several clutch hits that took Miami's crowd of 67.025 out of the game early.
time Hargrove had hoped.
A 7-4 loss in Game 1 marked the third time this October that Cleveland had lost the opener of a postseason series. But for the third time, the Indians bounced back.
Just the way Indians manager Mike Harvey have had
"There's no reason in panicking over something you can't control because it's already over with." Hargrove said before the game.
Game three will be tomorrow night at Jacobs Field with Florida's Al DeLeer pitching against Charles Navy.
Even though snow is in the forecast, Cleveland certainly will find it more comfortable at home, surrounded by its frezzied fans. The Marlins, who took batting practice in 77-degree weather — the warmest for a World Series game since 1978 at Dodger Stadium — are surely in for a cold welcome.
Ogea limited the Marlins to one run and seven hits in 6 2/3 innings, and Mike Jackson and Jose Mesa closed with scoreless relief. Ogea also got some support for a change — he had pitched 19 1/3 innings in this
postseason without Cleveland scoring a run.
Indians hitters,however fared much better against Kevin Brown.
Marquis Grissom had three of Cleveland's 14 hits. He raised his career Series average to .441, the highest ever for a player with at least 50 at-bats, and now has hit in all 14 of his Series games.
Though Matt Williams' single started the Indians' three-run fifth, Brown's downfall may have begun before that hit. The pitcher ran to first base on a grounder that ended the fourth, and his final warmup in the fifth sailed to the backstop.
Williams led off with a single, Alomar singled with one out and Grissom followed with an RBI single for a 2.1 lead. Ogea then showed what he had learned in interleague-play hitting, during which he had two sacrifices with a bunt that moved up the runners.
The next inning, Alomar hit a shot into the left-field stands. It was his fourth home run of this postseason and marked the costliest of the 10 hits Brown allowed in six innings.
Roberts made the move pay off with a single that gave the Indians a 4-1 lead.
For the second straight game, David Justice put the Indians ahead 1-0 with an RBI single in opening inning. A double by Omar Vizquel, just three for 31 lifetime against Brown, set up Justice's hit.
The Marlins survived a scare while tying the score in the bottom half of the first.
Edgar Renteria singled with one out, and Gary Sheffield was hit in the left wrist by a pitch, sending him to the ground in pain. Sheffield stayed in the game, and Jeff Conine's two-out single tied the game. Other highlights include:
Marlins catcher Charles Johnson threw out Justice trying to steal.
