Browns Hand Jacksonville 6-5 Loss
Cleveland second baseman R.J. Givens was instrumental in helping the Browns triumph, 6-5, over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Givens was 2 for 2 with a double and 3 walks, while scoring 2. Reliever Ivan Tiburcio picked up the win. His record improves to 2-1. Juan Ceja took the loss. Adam Taute earned the save for Cleveland.

Cleveland used the hitting of Jerry Brown to pick up the win. The third baseman clubbed a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Browns on top, 6-5. For the game, Brown had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"The name on the front of this uniform is all that matters to me," Givens told the Cleveland Times. "And padding the Cleveland win column."

Jacksonville, with the loss, is still a hardy 12-5.
