Multi-HR Day for Mooney as Guardians Overpower Blue Jays, 11-4
The Cleveland Guardians defeated the Toronto Blue Jays, 11-4, at Rogers Centre. Cleveland was led by 26-year old second baseman Alex Mooney, who was 3-4 with 2 home runs and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. Kyle Nelson claimed the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The left-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 1.2 innings. His record stands at 2-4. The win for the Guardians raised their record to 72-71.

Cleveland used a well-timed hit by James Tibbs to capture the win. The left fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Guardians ahead, 3-0. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

"It was great to come out and swing the bats," Mooney told the Cleveland Chronicle.
