<div class="pre">Ny Yankees (65-51) at Cleveland (65-52) 1:05 pm EDT</div>

CLEVELAND (Ticker) - Alex Rodriguez will look to continue hisMVP-like campaign when the New York Yankees try to complete athree-game sweep of the Cleveland Indians on Sunday.

Rodriguez belted two home runs in Saturday's 11-2 victory overthe Indians. The 32-year-old third baseman is batting .301 with39 home runs and 114 RBI this season.


Rodriguez, who is looking to pick up his third American LeagueMVP award, has three blasts in the first two games of thisseries.


Jake Westbrook (3-6, 5.00 ERA) will get the start for Clevelandand hope to shut down Rodriguez and the rest of New York'shigh-powered offense. The 29-year-old Westbrook has won hislast two starts, surrendering just one run and seven hits over14 innings.


The Indians, who have lost nine of their last 14 games, hold aone-half game lead over Detroit in the AL Central.

The Yankees counter with Andy Pettitte (8-7, 4.00), who has wonfour of his last five decisions. The 12-year veteran yieldedthree runs and six hits with four walks and seven strikeoutsover 5 2/3 innings in a 5-4 triumph over the Toronto Blue Jayson Monday.


New York, which has gone a major league-best 22-8 since theAll-Star break, is tied with Seattle in the wild card race andpulled within five games of Boston in the AL East.
