The only thing C.C. Sabathia did not beat Tuesday night was the sunset. He missed that by 11 minutes.
But he had little trouble setting down the Minnesota Twins as the Indians bested their Central Division rival, 1-0, in a compact 2 hours and 6 minutes. There was little to complain about during the shortest Tribe game of the season as Sabathia sent the Progressive Field crowd of 26,874 home happy and early.
"I knew it was pretty early because it was still light," said Sabathia, who had his second shutout of the season and third complete game. "I was thinking maybe I could catch the Laker game [in the NBA Finals]. I just found the zone on both sides of the plate."
