WEB GEMS- Bot 4th: Chico Carrasquel robbed Harvey Kuenn of a base hit.

Warren Spahn allowed 2 hits while blanking Cleveland and second baseman Johnny
Temple had 3 base hits at Griffith Stadium as the Washington Nationals beat
the Cleveland Indians 1 to 0.

Spahn(13-7) dominated Cleveland hitters.  He was stingy on the mound, allowing
just 2 hits and 1 walk in 9 innings.  Washington took care of Cleveland with
no trouble in the 9th.  

Mike Fornieles(6-6) was hit with the loss in relief.  'All of my pitches were
working tonight,' Spahn said.  'I felt really good out there, and heck, I
think I could have gone longer.'
