CLEVELAND—A sports team’s name proved eerily fitting Tuesday when, according to USA Today, the Cleveland Indians were “scalped” 11-3 by the Detroit Tigers. “We had high hopes of ’taming’ the Tigers,” Indians manager Mike Hargrove said following the loss. “But instead, they wound up killing us and removing our hair as a grim trophy.” In other major-league contests Tuesday, the Mets hooked the Marlins, the Yankees “tore holes in” the Red Sox, and the Padres felled the Giants with nothing but courage and a tiny leather sling.
