ANAHEIM, California (Ticker) -- Matt Lawton and Brady Anderson drove in two runs apiece as the Cleveland Indians took the rubber game of their three-game series with the Anaheim Angels, 6-5.

Rookie Ryan Drese (1-0) started in place of Chuck Finley, who was scratched before the game after being victimized in a domestic dispute.

"It's personal," Indians manager Charlie Manuel said. "Chuck will take care of it. He's a man. If he wants to tell us about it, he will."Drese was going to start on (Tuesday), now that will probably be Finley."

Drese allowed three runs and nine hits in 5 2/3 innings. He walked two and struck out two before giving way to Ricardo Rincon, who got the final out in the sixth.

"I was a little shocked but anxious to pitch when I found out," Drese said. "It was about 4:30 and I had done 30 minutes of a workout that you normally wouldn't do if you were going to start. On the other hand, I didn't have all day to think about it to get nervous."

David Riske and Paul Shuey each tossed a scoreless inning before Bob Wickman allowed a pair of runs in the ninth. Wickman notched his first save of the season.

"They battled me, but luckily (we) had a big enough lead," Wickman said.

Lawton, who was acquired from the New York Mets as part of an eight-player trade, belted a two-run double to cap a three-run second inning that put Cleveland ahead for good. It was his first hit in seven at-bats this season.

Anderson had an RBI double in the third inning and lifted a sacrifice fly in the ninth to put Cleveland ahead by three runs.

"Brady Anderson seems to get a real good look at (Aaron Sele) every time they face each other," Anaheim manager Mike Scioscia said. "He settled down and finished strong."

Sele (0-1) made his first start for the Angels and allowed four runs and eight hits in five innings. He walked one and struck out two.

"I got the ball up there," Sele said. "I was really battling the whole game. If you get the ball up to good hitters, they put it in play just like they did tonight."

With Cleveland trailing, 1-0, Russell Branyan laced a one-out RBI single to left in the second. After Einar Diaz flied out to right, Lawton belted a double over center fielder Darin Erstad's head, making it 3-1.

Anderson's double made it 4-1, but the Angels cut the deficit to one run with an RBI single by Ben Molina in the fourth and a sacrifice fly by Benji Gil in the sixth.

"That's too good of a hitting lineup to make mistakes up in the zone against," Sele said.

Cleveland added a run in the eighth when Gutierrez hit an 0-1 pitch from Donne Wall over the left-center field fence for his first homer of the season.

Wickman yielded a leadoff double to Adam Kennedy in the ninth and a one-out walk to Erstad. Tim Salmon singled up the middle, scoring Kennedy and sending Erstad to third.

Garret Anderson's groundout scored Erstad, but Troy Glaus struck out to end the game.

The Angels opened the scoring in the bottom of the first when Glaus delivered a bases-loaded single. But Drese induced Brad Fullmer to bounce into an inning-ending double play.

"In the first inning, we had him on the ropes and Fullmer hits one right on the screws," Scioscia said. "And unfortunately, it turns into a double play."
