At Xpress Stadium the Minnesota Xpress were battered 6 to 1 by the Cleveland Indians.
Cleveland tallied 4 runs in the top of the 3rd inning when they came up with 3
base hits.  That early run support was all that John Montefusco(3-0)
required.  Cleveland had 9 hits for the game and Minnesota had 2.
Doug Bird was tagged with the loss.  He allowed 6 runs and 9 hits in 9 innings.
