Beltre Pinches Indians With 3-run Hr

From Elias: Adrian Beltre connected for a three-run pinch-hit home run in the 11th inning, furnishing the winning runs in the Rangers' 5-2 victory at Cleveland. That hit lifted his season batting average with runners in scoring position to .409 (nine hits in 22 at-bats). It was only the second pinch-hit home run of Beltre's career (not the third, as reported elsewhere); the other was also a three-run homer, while with the Dodgers against the Marlins in the 2000 season.
