CLEVELAND -- The Cleveland Indians are in an odd segment of their schedule in which they will play three different teams on three consecutive days at Progressive Field.On Sunday, the Indians posted a 5-4 victory over the reeling Los Angeles Angels. Cleveland will host the Boston Red Sox on Monday before the Chicago White Sox come to town the following day for the first contest of a three-game series.Mondays contest between the Indians and Red Sox is a makeup of a game that was postponed on April 7. The Indians will send Josh Tomlin (11-5, 4.18 ERA) to the mound, while Bostons starter will be Drew Pomeranz (0-2, 5.26).Pomeranz is a former first-round pick by the Indians, who selected him with the fifth overall pick in the 2010 June Draft. In 2011, the Indians traded Pomeranz to Colorado as part of the trade that brought Ubaldo Jimenez to Cleveland.Since then, Pomeranz has bounced from the Rockies to pitch for Oakland, San Diego and Boston. In a combined 27 starts with San Diego and Boston this year, Pomeranz is 8-9 with a 3.03 ERA -- including 0-2 with a 5.26 in five starts for the Red Sox.Pomeranz has failed to record a decision and owns a 3.00 ERA in five career appearances against the Indians, all of them in relief.Tomlin got off to a very fast start this season, but has struggled over the last month. He was 9-1 with a 3.21 ERA on July 1, but is 2-4 with a 6.88 ERA and eight home runs allowed in 34 innings in his last six outings.The long ball has plagued Tomlin through most of his starts. He has allowed 27 homers, which ties him for the most of any American League pitcher.The Indians, however, have plenty of support behind Tomlin. The addition of left-hander Andrew Miller to the Indians bullpen has bolstered manager Terry Franconas late-game options.Miller, closer Cody Allen and set-up man Bryan Shaw are the three chess pieces Francona has for the late innings in games the Indians are leading. Francona has stuck with Allen in the closers role so far, with Shaw in the seventh and Miller in the eighth.Were still trying to figure out how were going to use guys (late in games), Miller said. Flexibility is a positive I can offer. Any way (Francona) wants to use me, Ill happily oblige.In their win over the Angels Sunday, Francona had Miller pitch the seventh and eighth innings and Allen the ninth. The two relievers combined to retire all nine batters they faced to preserve the win.With the way he was throwing, the best thing to do is to stay out of the way. That was phenomenal, Francona said of Millers two-inning, six-batter domination of Angels hitters.The matchup between the Indians and Red Sox will be one that features the two highest scoring teams in the American League. Boston leads the AL with an average of 5.51 runs per game and Cleveland is second at 5.11. The Red Sox are coming off a 16-2 pummeling of Arizona on Sunday.Weve gone through some cycles offensively, Boston manager John Farrell said. It looks like were headed into one of those better cycles that weve seen strong offensive output.Mondays game will be the first of Bostons 11-game, four-city road trip that will also include stops in Baltimore, Detroit and Tampa Bay.Its definitely really important, Mookie Betts said of the road trip after belting three homers versus the Diamondbacks on Sunday. Were playing against some division guys and somebody were in a race with, so its going to be tough. Theyre really good teams, but were a good team too.Betts wasnt fazed by playing in four different parks over a five-day stretch.Youve just got to go play, he said. You cant let those type of things affect you. Kyle Schwarber Jersey . -- Tony Stewart is 20 pounds lighter and has a titanium rod in his surgically repaired right leg. Kerry Wood Jersey .

LOUIS -- Rookie Tavon Austin has missed another day of practice, lessening the odds hell be ready for the St. IRVING, Texas --?Dallas Cowboys linebacker Rolando McClain?has been?suspended for the seasons first 10 games for violating the NFLs substance abuse policy, the league announced.McClain, 26, was suspended the first four games of last season for violating the policy.In March, the Cowboys re-signed McClain to a one-year deal worth up to $5 million. He is set to receive a $1.25 million base salary and could earn $125,000 for each game he is on the 46-man roster, maxing out at $2 million. He also has $1 million in playing-time incentives.Per the collective bargaining agreement, McClain could be forced to repay the $750,000 signing bonus he received as part of the deal. McClain faces the possibility of being released, however, which would preclude the Cowboys from seeing the bonus money returned.It is another chapter in a tumultuous career for McClain, who was the eighth pick of the 2010 draft by the Oakland Raiders. He was released after the 2012 season in which he was deactivated for the final five games. He retired twice, including after a stint of about one month with the Baltimore Ravens in 2013.The Cowboys acquired McClain in a trade from the Ravens on July 1, 2014, after losing Sean Lee to a season-ending knee injury. In 12 games in 2014, McClain was credited by the coaches with 108 tackles. He also had a sack, nine tackles for loss, five quarterback pressures, two interceptions, five pass deflections and a forced fumble.McClain had knee surgery after the season, which kept him out of the 2015 offseason program and off the practice field through almost all of training camp as he worked himself into better shhape.ddddddddddddHe was initially to be fined four game checks for violating the substance abuse policy in 2015 but had another misstep that led to his suspension.In 11 games in 2015, he was credited with 97 tackles, two sacks, nine tackles for loss, 10 pressures, one interception and three pass breakups.He signed a third one-year deal with the Cowboys in March, and the Cowboys hoped he would take part in the full offseason program. Once again he missed the organized team activities as he tended to family issues in Alabama, according to coach Jason Garrett.When he returned for the mandatory June minicamp, McClain was not in shape and did not practice, spending his time off to the side, working on his conditioning. Owner and general manager Jerry Jones said McClain was given some slack. However, that appeared contrary to Garretts thoughts, as the coach said twice McClain was expected to be at the second and third weeks of OTAs.Defensive end Randy Gregory will be suspended the first four games.?DeMarcus Lawrence, who led the Cowboys with eight sacks last season, also is suspended for four games after his appeal was denied Thursday.McClain will be eligible to return to the Cowboys active roster on ?Nov. 21 following the teams Nov. 20 game against the Baltimore Ravens. Without McClain, the Cowboys would likely move Anthony Hitchens to middle linebacker with Lee as the weakside linebacker and work with Kyle Wilber, Mark Nzeocha, Damien Wilson or Andrew Gachkar at strongside linebacker.
