PEORIA, Ariz. -- The Indians rode a late-inning power barrage to an 11-3 victory over the Padres on Sunday at the Peoria Sports Complex. Ronny Rodriguez launched a two-run homer in the seventh, Francisco Mejia and Wily Pena added solo shots in the eighth, and Eric Stamets capped the afternoon with a grand slam in the top of the ninth.
Padres left fielder Jabari Blash got in on the action as well, launching his Cactus League-leading fifth home run. Carlos Asuaje and Travis Jankowski also knocked in runs for the Friars, whose offense was otherwise stymied by Corey Kluber.
The Indians' ace was in midseason form through four, before Asuaje and Jankowski broke through in the fifth. Kluber would finish with four strikeouts over 4-plus innings.

"We were really pleased with his outing, and I think he should be, too," Indians manager Terry Francona said. "He was good. He was only going to go four, but because his pitch count was so low, we sent him out so he could throw 10 more [pitches], just so he didn't have to throw 30 in the bullpen. And he went back out and threw another 20. He was real efficient, around the plate like he can be. You're starting to see that late movement."

Padres starter Jered Weaver saw mixed results in his second outing of the spring. He was sharp during a quick first inning, before allowing a run on three hits and two walks over the next 1 1/3. Weaver -- who went heavier on the breaking ball than he did during his first start -- said he's still trying to nail down his timing when he's working from the stretch.
"Physically, it felt good," Weaver said. "Mechanically, I'm still getting a little quick front-side, but that will come with muscle memory and more repetitions. … Offspeed stuff is coming along. But the most important thing is feeling healthy."

Indians right fielder Lonnie Chisenhall led the way early on, going 3-for-3. First baseman Nellie Rodriguez went 2-for-2 with an RBI single off Weaver in the second inning, but his day ended prematurely in the fourth when he exited with a sprained right ankle.
