Perdomo, Padres take on Bauer, Indians Wednesday

CLEVELAND — The biggest issue for the Cleveland Indians going into the second game of their three-game series with the San Diego Padres on Wednesday is who will be their manager.

During the opener on Tuesday, Indians manager Terry Francona wasn’t in the dugout. He was at the Cleveland Clinic, undergoing further tests in an attempt to pinpoint why he had to leave in the middle of games twice in the last three weeks due to a rapid heartrate.
