Cleveland's Sandy Alomar Jr put his team on the board with a 2-run shot in the bottom of the 6th to go up 2-1 on the Jays. After Toronto knotted it at 2 in the top of the 7th, Jim Thome put his team up to stay in the bottom of the frame with a mammoth 3-run blast to right-centerfield. Jose Mesa pitched the 8th and 9th innings for Cleveland, allowing no hits while striking out 5 of the 6 batters he faced to notch the save.
