Chico Carrasquel had 4 hits and 4 RBI and Walt Masterson allowed Mel Gross to
rest his bullpen, tossing a complete game as the Washington Nationals were
badly beaten by the Cleveland Indians, 18 to 3.

The game started off with Cleveland taking the lead in the first scoring a
single run on 2 base hits.  Cleveland kept the scorekeepers busy in the 2nd
inning with 7 runs on 5 hits and the 6th inning which saw them plate 4 runs
on 3 hits.  The Cleveland offense poured it on, scoring in 7 of the 9
innings.  

The win was credited to Masterson(3-9) who went the whole way allowing 3 runs.
The losing pitcher was Murry Dickson(5-5).  He got hit pretty hard, allowing
10 hits and 4 walks in 3 and 2/3 innings.  

With this win, Cleveland has a 49-53 record.  They have been 5-5 lately.  With
