CLEVELAND (AP) -- John McDonald has made a point of not looking
at the scoreboard when he steps into the batter's box.

Given that he was hitting .107 going into Monday's game, that's
understandable. Things are looking up, however, after a 4-for-4
performance in the Cleveland Indians' 14-0 blowout of the Baltimore
Orioles.

Jake Westbrook pitched his first major league shutout as the
Indians won their fourth straight game.

"I don't want to see that I'm barely hitting .100 and if I get
a hit, I might be hitting .120," McDonald said. "That's not a
good thing to look at."

McDonald's career day raised his average to .219.

Westbrook (6-2) pitched a four-hitter for his first shutout in
43 career starts. He struck out four and walked two in his third
career complete game.

"It means a lot," Westbrook said. "Any first you get in the
majors is pretty special. It's very, very nice."

Westbrook has won three of his last four starts and hasn't lost
since May 22. His 2.70 ERA is the lowest among AL starting
pitchers.

The Indians, who have won eight out of 10, moved to within a
game of .500 at 30-31.

Meanwhile, the Orioles are moving in the opposite direction,
having lost six of their last nine games.

Orioles manager Lee Mazzilli held a team meeting after Sunday's
7-3 loss to San Francisco, but he didn't meet with his players
Monday.

"What am I going to say to them?" he asked. "They must be
frustrated. I hope they are after a game like that."

The game was a makeup from a May 2 rainout at Jacobs Field, but
the circumstances were tougher on the Orioles. They flew in from
Baltimore on Sunday night on their way to Los Angeles, where they
begin a three-game series Tuesday.

The Indians made matters even tougher on the Orioles by scoring
seven runs in the third -- their biggest inning of the season -- and
six more in the fifth.

"The seven runs made me feel more relaxed and to get another
six was great," said Westbrook.

Casey Blake led the Indians with three RBI. Coco Crisp, Lou
Merloni, Jody Gerut and Tim Laker each drove in two runs. Merloni
had two of the Indians' eight doubles.

All the third-inning runs came with two outs. Blake's two-run
single, and two-run doubles by Merloni and Laker highlighted the
big inning. McDonald added an RBI single.

"I don't know how many hits they got in a row," said Mazzilli.
"It was bang, bang, bang."

Eric DuBose (4-5) was charged with eight runs in 2 2-3 innings.
He gave up six hits and walked four.

The Indians roughed up Rick Bauer for six runs in the fifth.

Gerut hit a two-run double and Crisp had a two-run single. An
RBI double by Ronnie Belliard and an RBI single by Travis Hafner
accounted for the rest of the scoring.

"Everything I threw got hit," Bauer said. "I just stink."

Indians catcher Victor Martinez, who missed three games because
of a sprained right foot, started at designated hitter. He extended
his hitting streak to 12 games with a second-inning double.

Indians manager Eric Wedge expects Martinez to catch Tuesday
night against the New York Mets.
