Indians Cruise To 10-4 Win; O's Ace Means Leaves With Injury
BALTIMORE (WJZ/AP) -- Cesar Hernandez and Harold Ramirez homered off Baltimore ace John Means, who exited in the first inning with shoulder fatigue as the Cleveland Indians beat the Orioles 10-4.
Cedric Mullins homered twice as part of his second career five-hit outing for Baltimore, which saw its three-game winning streak end. Yu Chang also homered to help Aaron Civale tie for the major league lead in victories with eight.
Means, who pitched a no-hitter at Seattle on May 5, faced only five batters. The left-hander surrendered a leadoff homer to Hernandez and a solo drive to Ramirez with two outs. After Eddie Rosario followed with a single, Means exited.
