Indians 7, White Sox 1: Danny Salazar dominates on mound

CHICAGO: Danny Salazar stayed warm and loose through the snow, rain and biting cold. His teammates helped out with an early lead.

Salazar tossed two-hit ball into the sixth inning, and the Indians pounded the White Sox 7-1 Friday, spoiling Chicago’s bone-chilling home opener.

It was 39 degrees at first pitch and snow and rain fell during the day, but the Indians were in their element. The Indians jumped to a 5-0 lead against John Danks en route to an easy victory after splitting two games at home with Boston in a season-opening series that included two postponements.
