Losing 2-0 to the A’s last night, CC Sabathia must feel like the curse of Kevin Millwood is spreading into his start. Or, perhaps Millwood’s lack of offensive support just shifted one day forward. If that’s the case, the Tribe should score about a billion runs tonight for Millwood.
They’d better score some. The second game of this series is absolutely crucial.

Without question. The Indians can’t sweep the Twins and then lay an egg against the A’s. They’ve got a shot to bury Oakland in the wild card and they need to take advantage. Otherwise, we may soon find ourselves eight or nine back from the Sox again and looking up at Oakland or New York in the wild-card standings.
