Baseball Update:
Monday's Game
Indians 6, Yankees 4
It seems there will be a new era beginning for the Yankees in 2008 after they dropped game four of the ALDS to the Indians which allowed the Tribe to take the best of five series. The Indians came out strong with a Grady Sizemore leadoff homerun off of Chien Ming Wang. Wang only last a little over an inning allowing four runs before original game four starter Mike Mussina took over. But Paul Byrd's ability to change before the Yankees bats figured him out, kept the Tribe ahead. For this series, it seemed that ARod wasn't the Yankee not getting it done but instead the captain Derek Jeter.
WP: Paul Byrd (1-0) LP: Chien Ming Wang (0-2)
SV: Joe Borowski (1)
Indians win series 3-1
The LCS begins on Thursday.
