- The game was all punts and field goa Antworten

CLEVELAND -- Following Clevelands comeback, there was more emotion than usual in the Indians clubhouse. Vinnie Pestano is on the move -- to the minors. As reporters spoke to Ryan Raburn, whose pinch-hit, two-run single in the eighth inning rallied the Indians to their sixth straight win, 7-4 over the freefalling Chicago White Sox, Pestano, the clubs popular setup man, stood near his locker with a stunned look on his face. Several of Pestanos teammates approached the right-hander, who stopped packing his bags to share hugs with Chris Perez, Jason Giambi and others. Asked what was going on, Pestano told reporters to speak with manager Terry Francona or general manager Chris Antonetti. Pestano will be optioned Wednesday to Triple-A Columbus, a somewhat stunning move for the Indians, who acquired left-hander Marc Rzepczynski from St. Louis before the game. Pestano has struggled this season -- 1-2 with a 4.05 ERA in 34 games -- and had one stint on the disabled list but had been pitching better lately. Antonetti hinted the Indians may make another move before Wednesdays deadline, saying before the game that "theres a lot that can happen in the next 24 hours." In the meantime, the Indians are rolling. They moved 10 games over .500 and won their ninth straight at Progressive Field. Raburn, batting for Jason Giambi, who won Monday nights game with a pinch-hit homer in the ninth, singled off Matt Lindstrom with two outs as the Indians stormed back and won for the 11th time in 15 games. "I got a pitch I was able to do something with and was able to get a hit up the middle," said Raburn, downplaying his latest clutch hit. Raburn is batting .349 (22 of 63) with 22 RBIs with two outs. Hes also hitting .462 (12 of 26) with four homers and 19 RBIs with runners in scoring position this season. "Im just trying to get a good pitch to hit, not try to do too much," said Raburn, who signed with the Indians as a free agent after a rough 2012 season with Detroit. "You have to realize the pressure is on the pitcher to get an out so you just go up there and battle. Its one of those things where I couldnt do nothing right last year but now I almost cant do nothing wrong." Yan Gomes added a two-run single in the eighth as the Indians stayed within 2 1-2 game of first-place Detroit in the AL Central. The Indians were in danger of losing to Brazilian rookie Andre Rienzo in his debut before coming back against Donnie Veal (1-2), who started the eighth. Clevelands comeback spoiled a solid outing by Rienzo, who started in place of Jake Peavy. Rienzo, the first Brazilian-born player to pitch in the major leagues, did not allow an earned and only five hits in seven innings. "It was fun seeing him pitch," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. "The end stunk but he did well." Bryan Shaw (2-2) got one out in the eighth and closer Chris Perez worked the ninth for his 15th save -- and ninth straight. Rienzo was recalled earlier in the day from the minors as the White Sox pushed back Peavys start one day in case they were able to trade him before Wednesdays deadline. They worked out a deal late Tuesday night, sending Peavy to the Boston Red Sox as part of a three-team deal that included the Tigers. In exchange for Peavy, Chicago received outfielder Avisail Garcia from Detroit as well as minor league infielder Cleulius Rondon and pitchers Francelis Montas and Jeffery Wendelken from the Red Sox. Adam Dunn drove in two runs for the White Sox, who dropped 24 games under .500 for the first time since Sept. 29, 1989. Trailing 4-3, the Indians scored four runs in the eighth. Veal gave up a one-out single to Asdrubal Cabrera, and one out later, Carlos Santana singled. Pinch-runner Drew Stubbs stole second before Raburn, who has been clutch all season for Francona, singled to centre off Lindstrom to make it 5-4. After Lonnie Chisenhall singled, Gomes came through with his double. With Peavy in waiting mode before he was traded, Rienzo gave the White Sox a glimpse of their future. The right-hander seemed unfazed in facing one of baseballs hottest teams. He was only in trouble once, when the Indians scored three times in the fifth to tie it. But Rienzo quickly shook it off and was in position to get a win before the Indians came back against Chicagos bullpen. Along with dangling Peavy, the White Sox have reportedly shopped outfielder Alex Rios. He left in the eighth after fouling a pitch off his left foot. Rios will undergo X-rays, but he doesnt believe the injury is serious. The White Sox took a 4-3 lead in the sixth on Dayan Viciedos two-out RBI single. Cleveland starter Scott Kazmir allowed four runs and nine hits in five-plus innings. Staked to a 3-0 lead, Rienzo looked poised while making history as Brazils first big-league pitcher. In the third, he faced Indians catcher and fellow countryman Gomes, who dribbled a single through the middle for Clevelands second hit. Once he reached first, the Indians catcher shared a smile with Rienzo, who moments later tried to pick his friend from Brazils national team off the bag. Rienzo showed his full repertoire in the fourth, striking out Nick Swisher, All-Star Jason Kipnis and Cabrera on just 11 pitches. He started off Cabrera with two curves before blowing a high fastball past Clevelands shortstop. However, Rienzo was hurt by two walks in the fifth, when the Indians scored three unearned runs to tie it 3-all. The White Sox gave Rienzo an early cushion, scoring two runs in the first and one in the second to take some pressure him. Dunn hit a two-out, two-run double in the first as Chicago ended Clevelands streak of scoring first at 16 games, a franchise record. In the second, Gordon Beckham ended a 0-for-20 slide with a one-out double and scored when Josh Phegley ended a 0-for-14 slump with an RBI single. NOTES: Giambi was awed to learn his homer Monday was historic. The 42-year-old passed Hank Aaron as the oldest player to ever hit a walk-off homer. "Thats pretty unbelievable," Giambi said of breaking Aarons mark. "Its unfathomable. Im just grateful, and I thank God Im still playing, to have this opportunity to be here." Giambi was 45 days older than Aaron, who hit his 754th career homer on July 11, 1976, for Milwaukee. ... Indians RHP Josh Tomlin, who is recovering from Tommy John surgery last August, is ahead of schedule. Francona said its "possible" Tomlin could pitch for Cleveland in September.

Down by seven with 90 seconds left in regulation, thats where they looked comfortable. ALLENTOWN, Pa. -- An eastern Pennsylvania judge says she wont dismiss the homicide charges against former pro wrestling star Jimmy Superfly Snuka in the death of his girlfriend more than three decades ago but may consider doing so later.The Lehigh County judge in June ruled the 73-year-old defendant mentally incompetent to stand trial in his girlfriends 1983 death. She declined prosecutors request to have him involuntarily committed to a mental hospital.Prosecutors then asked the judge to either require Snuka to participate in outpatient treatment to determine whether he can become mentally competent or dismiss the charges.If you believe that hes not going to become competent, then whats the point? Chief Deputy District Attorney Charles Gallagher III asked Judge Kelly Banach in court on Tuesday. We ask you to dismiss the charges.Banach said she wasnt comfortable with dismissing the charges at this point but wanted to revisit the case at Snukas next evaluation hearing in December. She said she was open to reconsidering her decision if new evidence to drop the charges was presented.The defense has argued that Snuka suffers from dementia, partly due to the head trauma he suffered over a long career in the ring.dddddddddddd A prosecution expert said Snukas brain shows normal signs of aging and suggested that he might be feigning symptoms. Gallagher repeated that contention Tuesday, saying the defendant has been an actor his whole life.Banach, who questioned Snuka herself earlier, said in June that she found the wrestler vacant and unable to assist in his defense. I dont believe hes faking it. I dont think hes smart enough to fake it, Banach said in June.If Banach grants the prosecutions motion to require outpatient treatment, its unclear where Snuka would receive it. Defense attorney Robert Kirwan said his client plans to move to Florida to live with his son.Snuka, a native of Fiji who lives in New Jersey, was charged last year with third-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter in the death of 23-year-old Nancy Argentino, whose body was found in their Whitehall Township hotel room. Prosecutors allege she was beaten while Snuka has maintained that she died from a fall. ' ' '
