#401---CLE @ DET, 3/1/2003


 

There were a lot of runs in this early spring training game, with the Indians getting three-run homers from Travis Hafner and Jhonny Peralta to power a 13-8 win. Their third base coach must have been easing into the season as well as they had two consecutive runners nailed at the plate in the fourth. Some fun names show up here (Eugene Kingsale and Hiram Bocachica), but Steve Avery’s sad comeback attempt with his hometown team is also on display (although he did make nineteen appearances out of the pen in the regular season to close his MLB career after not having appeared in any of the previous three seasons).
