Cabrera's 5 RBIs Help Indians Beat White Sox 11-2
CLEVELAND (AP) -- Asdrubal Cabrera drove in five runs and Jeanmar Gomez won his fifth straight start for Cleveland as the Indians beat the Chicago White Sox 11-2 on Thursday night to remain in second place in the AL Central.
Gomez (5-2) gave up one earned run and four hits over six innings. Since being recalled from Triple-A Columbus on Aug. 30, the right-hander is 5-0 with a 1.80 ERA.
Cabrera hit a three-run homer and tied his career-high for RBIs. Kosuke Fukudome added three RBIs and Travis Hafner singled for his 1,000th career hit as Cleveland moved 1 1/2 games ahead of the White Sox.
Fukudome's two-out, two-run single off Phillip Humber (9-9) in the fifth inning broke a 2-2 tie.
