What a great weekend to be an Ohio sports fan.
The Cleveland Indians survived a marathon Game 2 of the American League Championship Series in Fenway Park, defeating the Boston Red Sox 13-6 in 11 innings to even their best-of-seven series at 1-1.
Former Red Sox outfielder Trot Nixon, an offseason free agent pickup for the Indians, drove in the go-ahead run as the Boston bullpen imploded in the 11th inning.
Now the series heads to Jacobs Field, starting with Game 3 tonight. The first pitch is scheduled to be thrown shortly after 7 p.m.
Meanwhile, the rash of upsets that have saturated college football claimed two more victims Saturday, and the result has Ohio State on top of all three major polls and the first Bowl Championship Standings, released Sunday afternoon.
The Buckeyes, who have the nation's top scoring defense, haven't exactly faced a murderer's row of opponents this season. Ohio State is 7-0, with its two most impressive wins thus far at Washington and at Purdue.
But that will change over the season's final five weeks, with home games against the surprise of the Big Ten, Illinois, and Wisconsin, and road trips to Penn State and Michigan.
