Spiders Turn Back Pirates, 7-5
Cleveland third baseman Kevin Mitchell had 3 ribbies while helping his team defeat the Pittsburgh Pirates, 7-5. With the loss, Pittsburgh is 1-1.

It could have been a different outcome for Cleveland, had it not been for Marquis Grissom, the former first round draft pick . Grissom contributed a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put Cleveland up, 3-0.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Grissom said.
