Spring Fever: Indians @ Astros

Cleveland 13, Houston 2

Cleveland's Jake Westbrook and six relievers combined for five hits in a 13-2 victory over the Houston Astros, with Victor Martinez getting three hits, including a three-run shot.

Westbrook allowed two hits, one walk and one run in two innings with five outs on grounders, including a double play by infield duo Jhonny Peralta and Josh Barfield.

Signed by Houston in December, 40-year-old Woody Williams allowed two runs and three hits in two innings, striking out two. Jason Lane homered and Adam Everett had an RBI single for the Astros.

Paul Byrd followed Westbrook and gave up one hit over two scoreless innings, striking out two while Rafael Perez and Edward Mujica worked one hitless inning apiece for Cleveland.

Houston's Brian Moehler gave up three runs in one inning and Juan Gutierrez allowed two runs and four hits over two innings. Lincoln Holdzkom allowed five runs and four hits in 2/3 of an inning. Non-roster invitee Mike Rose and minor-leaguer Alan Zinter each had two RBIs for Cleveland.
