The Indians lead 6-5. The resumption will begin at 12:15 p.m. (2:15 CDT) today, before the start of the regularly scheduled game. This was the first game in Oakland suspended because of curfew since Aug.

10, 1972, against Chicago. "I'm not telling the Oakland A's how to run their organization, but they choose to spend their dollars somewhere else, which is their business," Evans said. "I felt sorry for Clay Wood, Oakland groundskee-per because he was so understaffed. He was out there recruiting ushers and security people to get the tarp on the field." Even a couple of men in suits were spotted trying to help out with the tarp during the second delay, which was called after David Justice homered off Tom Candiotti amid a sudden downpour in the top of the fifth, putting Indians up 5-2. "The ball I threw to Justice, I felt it squirt through my hand," Candiotti said.

"He did a good job of picking it up through the rain drops." The start of the game was delayed 1 hour, 46 minutes because of rain. But most of the second delay, another 1:44, took place under dry skies. It took the grounds crew more than an hour to completely cover the soggy infield with sand once the tarp was removed because so much rain had fallen on the infield before the crew was able to cover it again. "We're not understaffed," Wood said. "It's a matter of having able, capable bodies.

The tarp is a monster." Some of those able bodies paid dearly. One poor soul got stuck under the tarp when he slipped as his fellow workers raced too far ahead of him in the folding process. He scrambled back gamely and popped his head out from under the tarp, to a thunderous ovation from the crowd. Only 20 games have been postponed or shortened because of rain at the Coliseum since the A's moved to Oakland in 1968. The most recent was last Friday night against the New York Yankees.

About 200 fans were still in the stands when the game was finally halted. Under AL rules, no inning may start after 1 a.m. local time. OAKLAND, Calif. Rain fell in spurts all day.

The hot dog vendors stayed home. So did most of the fans. But the game went on, and the Oakland Athletics and Cleveland Indians nearly played all night, until their game was finally suspended at 1:22 a.m. PDT (3:22 CDT) yesterday. The announced crowd of 6,963 spent more time heckling the grounds crew than watching baseball.

"IVe been coming to this park for 27 years and I think IVe only had one rainout," umpire crew chief Jim Evans said. "Obviously, they dont spend much time worrying about them." The Indians and A's played eight innings while enduring 312 hours of two "rain" delays work delays would be the 1 .286 shutout.

Thus far, Baltimore is getting its money's worth. Joe Carter drove in four runs, and Eric Davis and Lenny Webster homered as the Orioles won their sixth straight, beating Kansas City 11-7 yesterday in the Royals' home opener.

Lenny Webster and Eric Davis homered, and Roberto Alomar had four hits for Baltimore, which opened with a major league-high $69 million payroll. "The expectations are great," said Carter, who lives in suburban Leawood, Kan. "The ultimate goal is not to get to the World Series, but to win the World Series. You dont make that much of an investment to play mediocre baseball." Twins 12, Blue Jays 2 MINNEAPOLIS Four-time Cy Young winner Roger Clemens left after just seven pitches because of a strained right groin, and Minnesota took advantage of his absence to rout Toronto. Bob Tewksbury (1-1) gave up one run and two hits with no walks in seven innings.

He retired his final 18 batters. Clemens walked leadoff hitter Matt Lawton on five Omntand 020 211 00-6 7 1 Oakland 200 002 01 -S 12 2 n-iinoied for Bournktal In the 8th. pitches and then fell behind 2-0 to Brent Gates. Reliever Robert Person walked Gates, a walk that was charged to Clemens. Both runners eventually scored in a four-run first inning, highlighted by Marty Cordova's two-run triple.

Angels 6, Red Sox 1 ANAHEIM, Calif. Ken Hill pitched eight scoreless innings and Phil Nevin and Darin Erstad homered as Anaheim beat Boston. Hill (2-0) gave up five hits, walked none and struck out four. He retired 13 of his last 14 batters. Nevin homered in the second on a knuckleball from Tim Wakefield (0-1).

Tigers 3, Devil Rays 1 DETROIT Detroit ended a five-game losing streak behind the hitting of Brian Hunter and some aggressive base-running by Luis Gonzalez, and the Tigers beat Tampa Bay in their home opener.

NO BEER ON HOLIDAYS: The Boston Red Sox won't serve alcohol at Fenway Park during their home opener Friday In observance of Good Friday and Passover. The team also will skip most of the celebrations and ceremonies normally associated with its first home game. "We wanted to show our sincerity about this," said Red Sox Vice President of Public Affairs Dick Bresclani. "We understand the solemnity of the day." The time between noon and 3 p.m. on Good Friday Is most sacred to Christians, while sundown is when the Jewish faith starts the observance of Passover.

Game time was set for 3:05 p.m. FORMER NEGRO LEAGUER DIES: John Wyatt a former Negro League pitcher who played for four major league teams and won a World Series game in 1967, has died.
