Center fielder Al Kaline cracked 2 homeruns as the Cleveland Indians defeated
the Kansas City Athletics 8 to 0 at Municipal Stadium.

Kansas City fell behind quickly as the Cleveland offense came through in the
first inning plating an isolated run utilizing 2 base hits.  That was all the
runs George Susce(3-2) needed.  Cleveland finished with 17 hits while Kansas
City ended up with 4.  

Susce got help from Hoyt Wilhelm who earned his 1st save.  Lew Burdette(1-3)
ended up with the loss.  He served up 4 gopher balls in 6 innings.
