CLEVELAND - No extra innings. No wasted chances. No bullpen implosion.
Travis Hafner hit a grand slam, and Cliff Lee pitched six innings with help from his infield, which turned four double plays, as the Indians, who went 2-5 - three were extra-inning losses - on a season-opening road trip, won their home opener 6-3 over the Twins on Monday.
Hafner connected in the third inning off Kyle Lohse (0-2), and Matt Lawton added a solo shot in the seventh.
During pregame ceremonies, the Indians celebrated their first 10 years at Jacobs Field by unveiling a $7-million scoreboard that livens up the ballpark.
RANGERS 7, ANGELS 6: Pinch-hitter Brad Fullmer burned his former team with a three-run double that capped a five-run sixth for host Texas. Hank Blalock was 3-for-5 with a go-ahead two-run single, and finished the four-game series with 10 hits. Kevin Mench was 2-for-4 with a double for Texas and is 11-for-24 in six games.
