Indians 10, White Sox 8

 
CLEVELAND (AP) -- Their ballpark may have a new name. Little else changed about the Cleveland Indians. The defending AL Central champions won in familiar fashion at Progressive Field -- home to so much late-inning drama when it was called Jacobs Field for the past 14 years. Casey Blake hit a three-run double in the eighth inning Monday to give the Indians a 10-8 season-opening win over the Chicago White Sox. (link)

Game #1: Casey Blake’s clutch hitting leads Indians to crazy victory
mvn.com 4/1/2008 — Casey Blake is about as clutch as Albert Belle was sane, just ask the stats. Blake hit a grand total of .190 last year with runners in scoring position, and .250 with the bases loaded last year.
