Ed Vande Berg(3-3) was the winning pitcher with a solid relief performance. He didn't allow much, just 1 hit and no walks in 1 inning. Cleveland made it exciting in the 9th, but they were unable to push the needed runs across.
Don Schulze(4-11) was tagged with the loss. He was knocked around, surrendering 7 runs in 4 innings. "Anytime you lose it hurts," said Pat Corrales "but it's losing the close ones that really hurt."
