Ryan Garko had a fabulous week for the Indians. He started off the week on Memorial Day hitting a three-run homer in the ninth inning of a miraculous comeback by the tribe. This came after hitting a homer earlier in the game against the Rays prized pitching prospect David Price.

Ben Francisco combined with Garko to create a great Pac10Pros double team this week for the Indians. His torrid hitting helped lead the Indians to a 5-2 record last week. The highlight of his week came in Wednesday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Francisco went 3-5 with a single, double, home run, two runs, and four RBIs.
