MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 2 (UPI) -- Two-run homers by Kelly Shoppach and David Dellucci rallied the Cleveland Indians past the Minnesota Twins 5-1 Saturday night.

Asdrubal Cabrera added two hits for the Indians, who had lost seven of their previous 10 games.
Winner Paul Byrd (6-10) surrendered an earned run and six hits in seven innings. The 37-year-old right-hander has won his last three starts.
Denard Span and Delmon Young had two hits each for the Twins, whose two-game winning streak ended.
Losing pitcher Kevin Slowey (7-8) gave up five earned runs and six hits in six innings with no walks and seven strikeouts.
