(AP) -- 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 multihomer 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.
