Big Day for Hill in 7-6 Guardians Win
Cleveland beat Los Angeles at Jacobs Field, escaping with a 7-6 win. The win in large part was due to third baseman Aaron Hill. He went 3-3 with a home run, 2 doubles, and a walk, while scoring 4 runs. The win lifts Cleveland to a record of 6-3.

Had Gustavo Hernandez not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Hernandez hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 7-6, in favor of the Guardians.

In postgame comments to the Cleveland Bulletin, Hernandez said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
