Mariners Open Series in Cleveland

CLEVELAND (AP) — After a day off Monday, the Mariners begin a three-game series in Cleveland on Tuesday night.

Wade Miley is on the mound facing Indians' right hander Carlos Carrasco.

On Sunday, Alex Rodriguez snapped his hitless skid with an early two-run homer off Hisashi Iwakuma (hee-sash-ee ee-wah-koo-mah) that sent the New York Yankees past the Seattle Mariners 4-3, ending their four-game losing streak.

Masahiro Tanaka topped Iwakuma in the first major league pitching matchup between former Japanese teammates, a game that was broadcast live on television back home — at 2 a.m. in Tokyo.
