Kluber goes 8, Miller saves it as Indians beat Yankees 5-2
NEW YORK (AP) Corey Kluber put Cleveland's rotation back on track, Andrew Miller earned a save against the team that traded him last weekend and the Indians beat the New York Yankees 5-2 on Saturday.
Mike Napoli, Jason Kipnis and Rajai Davis each homered to help the AL Central leaders recover from an early two-run deficit.
Kluber (11-8) struck out eight in eight innings of five-hit ball, beating CC Sabathia (6-9) in a matchup of pitchers who won the AL Cy Young Award with Cleveland.
Miller closed with a one-hit ninth for his first save with Cleveland. The lanky left-hander, acquired Sunday in a blockbuster trade, entered to a warm ovation at Yankee Stadium and fanned two batters following a leadoff single.
Miller's first nine saves this year came with the Yankees.
