Cabrera turns triple play alone

Indians second baseman Asdrubal Cabrera turned the 14th unassisted triple play in major league history, accomplishing the feat Monday night in the second game of a doubleheader against Toronto in Cleveland.

Cabrera made a diving catch on a line drive by Lyle Overbay, touched second base and then tagged out Marco Scutaro to end the fifth inning of Cleveland’s 3-0 loss.

The only miscue by the 22-year-old Cabrera was that he didn’t keep the ball.

“He flipped it into the stands and right as he did cried out, ‘Oh, no!’ ” first-base coach Luis Rivera said, serving as the Venezuelan’s interpreter.

“I knew it was pretty special,” Cabrera said.

Woods targets Memorial

Tiger Woods is chipping and putting again, and he hopes to play in the Memorial in two weeks.

“Everything in my life is doing great.” Woods said. “I’m just trying to get the leg organized enough to where I can play, and hopefully, I can play before. If not – if I can’t play before – then hopefully, at the Open.”

Woods had surgery on his left knee April 15 for the second time in five years, this time to clean out some cartilage.
