cleveland.com - Josh Beckett, Boston's Game 1 starter tonight at Fenway Park, says a good way to beat the Indians is keeping leadoff hitter Grady Sizemore off base. Sizemore hit .375 (6-for-16) with one triple, one homer and one RBI in the Indians' four-game victory over New York in the AL Divi sion Series. He was hit by a pitch, drew four walks, scored three runs and stole a base. "He's the one that gets everything going," said Beckett. "They've got their thumpers in the middle, but I think it starts with keeping guys like Grady off base."
