Gio Gonzalez tossed 6 2/3 scoreless innings and Mark Ellis sparked the offense with a two-run, bases-loaded double in the sixth inning as the Oakland A's shut out the Cleveland Indians, 3-0, on Friday night.

Jack Cust drove in the game’s only other run for Oakland, which has won six of seven.

Gonzalez (7-5) has been dominant against the Indians, notching two wins against them this season while pitching 13 2/3 scoreless innings. The left-hander has made four starts against the Indians the last two seasons and is 3-0 in that span.

Gonzalez gave up five hits, walked four and struck out five to win for the first time since June 6.

Andrew Bailey pitched a perfect ninth for his 16th save.

Mitch Talbot (8-7) gave up three runs and five hits in 5 1/3 innings to absorb the loss.

Oakland scored in the first when Cust walked with the bases loaded. Ellis' double gave the A's a three-run lead to end Cleveland's season-high five-game winning streak.
