Tribe offense wakes up in win.

Travis Hafner homered twice with Grady Sizemore and Todd Hollandsworth also adding long balls as Cleveland took the first match of a 3 game series against the Cardinals. Cliff Lee kept his perfect interleague record in tact going 7 strong innings to get the win.

All star voting is nearly complete with Sizemore and Hafner being the likely candidates to represent the indians. Hafner may get left out due to only being a DH with the game being played in Pittsburgh, a National League park. Should Travis make it he'll only be used as a pinch hitter.
