-- Devil Rays DH Jose Canseco, recuperating ahead of schedule from a herniated disc It's a fact: Cleveland is 56-51 against Chicago in the 1990s. It is the Indians' first winning mark against the White Sox in a decade since the 1940s (114-103).

Who's hot: The Royals' Mike Sweeney has an 18-game hitting streak.

Who's not: Indians shortstop Omar Vizquel committed his 11th error of the year last night. He had five all of last season.

On deck: Devil Rays left-hander Wilson Alvarez, on the disabled list since July 24 with left triceps inflammation, may start tomorrow.
