Indians 9, Angels 2: Abraham Almonte hits grand slam to back Josh Tomlin, Indians finish sweep of Angels

CLEVELAND: The Indians hit another grand slam to break a game open and Josh Tomlin turned in a terrific outing to take down the Los Angeles Angels 9-2 and finish a three-game sweep Sunday at Progressive Field.

The Indians (63-66) entered the fifth inning holding a 2-0 lead against Angels starter Jered Weaver (6-10). Michael Brantley singled and Carlos Santana followed with a double that fell after Angels right fielder Kole Calhoun lost it in the sun, the second time an Angels outfielder lost a fly ball off Santana’s bat and let it drop.

Lonnie Chisenhall, in a similar situation as Saturday night, was intentionally walked to load the bases.
