Lofton blends style and clutch power in World Series run

Kenny Lofton carries a rose and a football under his arms as he exits the Indians clubhouse at Jacobs Field after a 7-6 win over the Braves. The 312 career hitter excels in speed and defense, going five for five with five stolen bases and scoring half of Cleveland’s 12 runs in the first three games. Braves ace Greg Maddux compares Lofton to Babe Ruth for his intimidation factor, while former teammate Kevin O’Neill recalls Lofton’s basketball roots at Arizona and his transition to baseball.

Chipper Jones Shows Grit On and Off Field

Atlanta Braves rookie of the year candidate Chipper Jones proves both his bat and his bite. He hit 23 homers and 87 runs, and he speaks his mind about positions and leadership while recovering from a knee injury that sidelined him last season.

Thome's dramatic homer seals win as Indians top Braves

Jim Thome delivered a mammoth 436 foot homer in the eighth inning and drove in a run after grounding out and popping up earlier. Manny Ramirez added a late single while Orel Hershiser left the mound before Maddux. Kenny Lofton cited Thome's reaction as fueling the team after Belle's two-run shot. The Indians held a 4-2 lead before Ryan Klesko's ninth inning homer tightened the gap to 5-4.

Grissom fuels Braves push toward World Series title

Cleveland notes Marquis Grissom, a Atlanta native, driving a tying run in Game 5 as the Braves chase their first title in 88 years. He contrasts with Kenny Lofton but attains postseason run production and defense while praising team unity and manager Bobby Cox.
