Cabrera does it for Indians
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 24 - 05 - 2011

CLEVELAND: Asdrubal Cabrera made five hits from five pitches with two home runs and five RBIs as the Cleveland Indians completed a three-game sweep of the Cincinnati Reds with a 12-4 win in Interleague play Sunday.
Cabrera hit a two-run homer in the first inning off Edinson Volquez (3-2) for the Indians, who did early damage after winning the series' first two games with late-inning comebacks. Cabrera added a solo homer in the sixth to give Cleveland an 8-4 lead.
Yankees 9, Mets 3: At New York, Derek Jeter leveled the score with a two-run single that sparked an eight-run rally in the seventh inning and Alex Rodriguez drove in the go-ahead run with yet another hit as the Yankees pummeled the Mets in the finale of their weekend Subway Series.
In a slump for most of the season, Jeter hit a two-run, bases-loaded single off Mike Pelfrey (3-4) that made it 3-all — just the second time since Aug. 11 that Jeter tied the score or put the Yankees ahead from the seventh inning on.
Rodriguez hit a 60-foot roller toward third that left Willie Harris with no play as Brett Gardner sprinted home.
Red Sox 5, Cubs 1: At Boston, Tim Wakefield held Chicago to four hits in 6 2-3 innings, and Adrian Gonzalez had four hits of his own as Boston sent the Chicago Cubs home after their first visit to Fenway Park since the 1918 World Series.
Boston took two out of three from Chicago and has now won eight of its last nine games to move one-half game behind the New York Yankees and Tampa Bay in the American League East.
Making his third start of the season, this one because of injuries to John Lackey and Daisuke Matsuzaka, Wakefield (1-1) struck out three and walked none before leaving with two out in the seventh.
Rangers 2, Phillies 0: At Philadelphia, Matt Harrison allowed just five hits into the ninth inning to help Texas avoid a three-game sweep to Philadelphia. Harrison (4-4) struck out three, walked three and threw 117 pitches in his longest outing of the season, finishing two outs shy of his first shutout since 2009.
Elsewhere it was: Rays 4, Marlins 0; Astros 3, Blue Jays 2; Orioles 2, Nationals 1; Tigers 2, Pirates 0; White Sox 8, Dodgers 3; Cardinals 9, Royals 8, 10 innings; Angels 4, Braves 1; Mariners 6, Padres 1; Giants 5, Athletics 4, 11 innings; Diamondbacks 3, Twins 2.
Brewers 3, Rockies 1: At Milwaukee, Ryan Braun hit a two-run triple off Ubaldo Jimenez and scored on a throwing error to lift Milwaukee to a three-game sweep over Colorado in the NL.
