This game was marred by May showers, with a twenty-seven minute delay between the top and bottom of the first. In the second, both teams scored a pair, Orlando Hudson and Ben Broussard each driving in both runs for their respective nines. The rains came again in the bottom of the third, this time lasting for almost two hours and knocking both starters out of the game.
The bullpens proceeded to hurl zeros at each other, with five Cleveland relievers combining to allow just two hits and one walk over six innings. Toronto’s pen allowed just two hits and two walks, but one of the hits was Jhonny Peralta’s homer off Jason Frasor to lead off the seventh, and that was the difference in the game.
Victor Martinez’ third inning at bat features the fun notation “FC96” as Casey Blake was thrown out at second on what would have been a flyball single to right.
