Miller the veteran rookie fits Browns needs in preseason
Willie Miller, 28, a Vietnam veteran and rookie wide receiver for the Cleveland Browns, has impressed with speed and quickness.

Manning Grand Slam Powers Indians Past Twins 9-6
Rick Manning hit his first major league grand slam and Don Hood earned the win as the Cleveland Indians defeated the Minnesota Twins 9-6 in the opener of a four game series. Manning’s blast came with bases loaded in the eighth, stretching the lead, while Hood relieved with three shutout innings. Hood said he would pay Manning’s $1 fine for excessive celebration, joking about the team’s clubhouse rituals. The win improved Hood to 5-13 and highlighted Manning as a hustling, pivotal young player for Cleveland.
