Spiders Pull Back to .500 With Win Over Marlins
Cleveland third baseman Kevin Mitchell had a 3-RBI performance, which helped his team grab a 9-7 win over the Florida Marlins. John Thomson, who went 7 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 6 runs on 9 hits, while walking 2 and striking out 4. His record now stands at 12-8. Steve Karsay got the save, his 34th in 47 chances.

It could have been a different outcome for Cleveland, had it not been for Raul Ibanez, the former first round draft pick . Ibanez contributed a 2-run single in the top of the third inning to put Cleveland up, 6-4.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Cleveland manager Wilson Ogle.

The Spiders now have a record of 77-77.
