CLEVELAND -- Shin-Soo Choo homered twice and drove in a
career-high seven runs to lead the Cleveland Indians to a 15-3
victory over the Oakland Athletics on Friday night, snapping their
five-game losing streak.

Choo had an RBI single, two-run double, three-run homer and
capped his night with a solo shot, his 12th.

It was Choo's second career multi-homer game and the most RBIs by a Cleveland player since Grady Sizemore drove in seven Aug. 21 against Kansas City.

Cleveland, with the worst record in the AL at 32-49, won for only the third time in 16 games.

Asdrubal Cabrera had three RBIs in the Indians' biggest output since a 22-4 win at Yankee Stadium on April 18.

They totaled only 13 runs and batted .195 during their five-game losing skid.
