    Bartolo Colon only used his changeup twice, in the first inning and on the last pitch he threw. The way his fastball was dancing around the strike zone, the Oakland Athletics' right-hander really didn't need his offspeed stuff.

    It's been that way most of his career and the 39-year-old Colon sees no reason to change now that he's enjoying a renaissance with the A's.

    Colon pitched eight strong innings for his third consecutive win at home, Yoenis Cespedes homered and drove in three runs and Oakland beat the Cleveland Indians 8-5 on Saturday night.
