Tribe trifecta thwarts Tampa, achieves MLB first

After a sweep at the hands of the Orioles over the weekend, rookie Cody Anderson turned the tide for the Tribe in his second major-league start.

AL Cy Young Award winner Corey Kluber gets the ball Thursday in the series finale. Suffice to say, he's got some high standards to meet.
