Indians complete sweep of Blue Jays
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 14 - 05 - 2008

Asdrubal Cabrera turned the 14th unassisted triple play in major league history, and it wasn't enough for the Cleveland Indians to complete a doubleheader sweep.
Shannon Stewart hit a sacrifice fly in the 10th inning, Aaron Hill added a two-run single and the Toronto Blue Jays beat Cleveland 3-0 on Monday to salvage a split of the doubleheader.
The nightcap featured terrific pitching performances from Toronto's Shawn Marcum and Cleveland's Cliff Lee, who got a big assist from Cabrera in the fifth inning. With Kevin Mench and Marco Scutaro on with singles, Cabrera made a diving backhand catch of a line drive by Lyle Overbay, touched second base to force Mench and then tagged out Scutaro.
Colorado shortstop Troy Tulowitzki made the last unassisted triple play in the majors, on April 29, 2007, against Atlanta. Oakland second baseman Randy Velarde last turned the trick in the American League, on May 29, 2000, against the Yankees.
Fausto Carmona (4-1) pitched a five-hitter and Cabrera hit a two-run homer in Cleveland's 3-0 victory in the first game. A.J. Burnett (3-4) lost the first game.
Rays 7, Yankees 1: At St. Petersburg, Florida, Matt Garza pitched seven scoreless innings and the surging Tampa Bay beat nemesis Andy Pettitte and the New York Yankees for their fifth consecutive victory.
Garza (2-1) allowed five hits, walked one and struck out three. Only one baserunner, Alberto Gonzalez in the sixth, reached as far as second base against the right-hander.
Jason Bartlett and Dioner Navarro each drove in two runs for the Rays (22-16), who climbed six games over .500 for the first time in franchise history and also extended their home winning streak 10 games.
Twins 7, Red Sox 3: At Minneapolis, Livan Hernandez won again, Craig Monroe contributed another big hit, and Minnesota beat Boston.
Rangers 13, Mariners 12: At Arlington, Texas, the only real fireworks between Texas and Seattle this time were the pyrotechnic displays after back-to-back home runs by Josh Hamilton and Milton Bradley, and then the 10th-inning game-winning shot by Ramon Vazquez as the Rangers rallied to win.
Angels 10, White Sox 7: At Anaheim, California, Vladimir Guerrero homered and drove in four runs, Nick Adenhart recorded his first major league victory and the Angels beat the White Sox to snap a four
