Sanderson allowed an RBI double in the 1st to Carlos Baerga, and a solo home run to Manny Ram\u00edrez in the 7th. Other than that, he shut down a potent Cleveland offense. Orel Hershiser struggled to keep the ball in the park, serving up solo homers to Rickey Henderson and Mark McGwire in the 1st inning, and a 2-run shot to Jos\u00e9 Canseco in the 3rd. It was the 2nd time in the tournament that Henderson led off the game with a home run. Hershiser allowed 6 runs on 9 hits in 8 innings of work. Oakland will try to carry the momentum into tomorrow. After three series saw teams down 2-0, none of them were sweeps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/baseballmaelstrom.com\/STB90s\/Scoresheets\/09-11-2024_CLE_OAK.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Indians @ Athletics - 9\/11\/24\">Indians @ Athletics &#8211; 9\/11\/24<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1990 Oakland Athletics starter Scott Sanderson held the 1995 Cleveland Indians to just 2 runs on 6 hits in 8 innings while striking out 5, as the A&#8217;s took Game 3 of the series 6-2.
