Flores Rips 2 Home Runs in 6-5 Spiders Triumph
Bill Flores impressed in the 6-5 Cleveland win over New York. Flores, who leads the AL with a 1.042 OPS, belted 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Jorge Vasquez recorded the save for Cleveland, his 19th of the season. Cleveland is now 51-52, New York 62-41.

Cleveland took a 6-5 lead on Jim Thome's 17th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Thome hit in the bottom of the eighth, left New York pitcher Jason Grilli visibly frustrated.

"I like to lead by example," said Thome. "I'm glad I could contribute to a good win."
