Indians Take 3-0 Lead with 4-3 Win
The Cleveland Indians are one game away from a sweep of the Kansas City Royals today after a road win at Kauffman Stadium, 4-3. Indians right-hander Jered Weaver had a strong outing. He threw 7.1 innings of 5-hit ball. Cleveland now holds a 3-0 advantage in the best-of-7 Divisional Series.

Runs were hard to come by in this one. Adrian Gonzalez's at-bat with no one out in the top of the eighth, therefore, was critical. The Cleveland first baseman hit a run-scoring double, to put his team on top, 3-2.

"Things aren't going great right now," Kansas City manager said. "But you don't need me to tell you that."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City.
