Cleveland shows cautious optimism as Bob Wickman and Rafael Betancourt return to bolster a beleaguered bullpen. The relievers lock down a 4 1 win over Oakland before the All Star break with Smith and Riske sharing late innings and Miller Howry handling setup. Key injuries and lineup shifts loom as the club plots rotation spots with Sabathia Westbrook and Tadano.

Indians edge A's as Crisp powers rally in loss to Zito
Cleveland's Coco Crisp fueled a 3-for-4 day with his fifth homer and two RBIs, lifting the Indians past Oakland despite Jody Gerut’s baserunning miscues. Lee earned seven innings of one‑run ball, while Zito walked a tightrope through seven. The Indians sit atop the division at the All‑Star break, led by Lee’s nine wins and a strong first‑half run.
