Cardenas Swings Bobcats to 11-7 Win
Jesus Cardenas had an impact in the 11-7 Cleveland win over Brooklyn. The 1961 Rookie of the Year Award winner went 3-5 with 2 home runs. He scored 3 times and drove in 6. Tim McDonald, the winning pitcher, is now 16-12. He went 5 innings, allowing 4 runs on 7 hits, while fanning 7 and walking 0. The National Baseball League Eastern Division-leading Bobcats have a record of 91-61.

With Cleveland leading 8-4 in the bottom of the fifth, Cardenas came up to bat against Brooklyn pitcher Mel Pilgrim. Cardenas hit a knuckleball to right for a 3-run home run. His 15th home run of the season put the Bobcats on top, 11-4.

"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Cardenas.
