"Yeah, many a time, thanks for reminding me," Blue Jays manager John Gibbons joked when asked about seeing similar performances when the slugger played six seasons with Toronto. Encarnacion, who signed a three-year, $60 million contract with Cleveland in January, hit a leadoff home run in the second, broke a 3-all tie in the fifth with a two-run double and added an RBI single when Cleveland scored eight times in the seventh. Encarnacion was 3 for 4 with a walk and nearly added to his total later in the seventh, but center fielder Kevin Pillar tracked down his fly ball on the warning track with two runners on. The Indians won for just the second time in eight games and the offense scored 16 runs during a 1-5 road trip. Abraham Almonte hit a three-run homer and rookie Bradley Zimmer added a two-run single in the seventh. The right-hander lasted only 2/3 of an inning — matching the shortest start of his career — against Oakland on Sunday. Erik Gonzalez's single cut the lead to 3-2 and Francisco Lindor drew a one-out walk to load the bases. Encarnacion has hit 20 home runs in six consecutive seasons and has homered against all 30 major league teams.
