Wei-Yin Chen struggled mightily in a losing effort against the Indians on Thursday, allowing six runs on six hits over 6 1/3 innings. He walked three and struck out three in the game. Chen was victimized by the long ball in this one, as Johnny Damon took him out for a three-run shot in the second inning, then Shin-Soo Choo added a solo blast in the fifth. He was removed with two on in the seventh, and both runners eventually rode home on an Asdrubal Cabrera home run. He'll take a 7-4 record and 3.73 ERA with him into Seattle, where he'll square off against the Mariners on Tuesday.
