NOTES:
* Tribe SS Asdrubal Cabrera returns to the lineup today after missing the last three games with left quadriceps tightness.
* The good news about Friday's rain out before the game could become official is that it got Indians LHP and starter David Huff off the hook for seven runs in a career-low 2 2/3 innings. However, it also wiped out home runs by CF Grady Sizemore and DH Travis Hafner as the Tribe had rallied back to within a run, 7-6 before the game was postponed after four innings following a two-hour and 12-minute rain delay.
