MLB: Cleve. 11, Chi. White Sox 5 (11 inn.)

CHICAGO, April 7 (UPI) -- A two-run single by Victor Martinez keyed a six-run 11th inning Thursday as Cleveland rallied to defeat the Chicago White Sox, 11-5.

The Indians faced a 5-0 deficit at one point and still trailed by three going into the ninth before Casey Blake, Coco Crisp and Ron Belliard hit solo homers to force extra innings.

Crisp got the 11th-inning outburst going with a one-out single and Belliard doubled. Travis Hafner was then intentionally walked and Martinez, with the bases loaded, ripped his single that put the Indians in front.

Crisp went five for seven with two runs scored.
