Cleveland Indians defeat Boston Red Sox, 4-2, in Game 3 of the ALCS
Westbrook leads Tribe to 2-1 edge

Patience is a virtue, but sometimes it can be a real pain.
C.C. Sabathia and Fausto Carmona ran into that problem in games 1 and 2 of the American League Championship Series at Fenway Park. Boston's patient hitters made them throw too many pitches, and neither one made it through the fifth inning.

ALCS won't be bugged with spray
Tuesday, October 16, 2007Mark Gillispie and Jodie Valade
Plain Dealer Reporters
Jacobs Field head groundskeeper Brandon Koehnke didn't invest in gallons of bug spray. No mosquito netting covers the top of the ballpark. And there's no way the Indians even thought about fumigating.
If the midges return to Cleveland during this American League Championship Series, there's nothing the Indians will do to prevent the swarms of pesky bugs from descending upon the field and attacking the players.

Cleveland Indians' Asdrubal Cabrera delivers at bat and in the field in Game 3 victory
Tuesday, October 16, 2007 Joe Maxse
Plain Dealer Reporter
Asdrubal Cabrera was in the middle of it all during Monday night's 4-2 win against the Red Sox in Game 3 of the AL Championship Series.
That should come as no huge surprise. The Tribe's rookie second baseman has usually been in the mix since being called up from Class AAA Buffalo on Aug. 7. So making plays in the field or coming through at the plate is nothing new.
Still, Monday might have been Boston's first true glimpse of Cabrera's contributions.

Cleveland Indians to face the Boston Red Sox's Tim Wakefield in Game 4 of ALCS
Tuesday, October 16, 2007 Jodie Valade
Plain Dealer Reporter
Tim Wakefield isn't worried. His manager, Terry Francona, doesn't have the slightest concern, either. Well, no more concern than usual, that is.
Even though the right-handed knuckleballer hasn't pitched since Sept. 29 and was left off Boston's American League Division Series roster because of a right shoulder that required a cortisone shot, Wakefield will start tonight's AL Championship Series Game 4 between the Indians and Red Sox.
