The fans at Jacobs Field stood, shouted and waved white towels, which said It’s Westbrook’s Time Now.

In the Game 3 of the American League Championship Series, Jake Westbrook pitched into the seventh inning Monday night and stopped the intimidating Red Sox, taking the Indians to a 4-2 victory.

Cleveland took a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven series, which continues.
The Red Sox won in the opener, but the Indians, a fresher team for Game 3 at Jacobs Field, won a draining 11-inning game.

The mighty Red Sox lineup and David Ortiz were silenced by Indians starter Westbrook.

He carried the crowds with his as he recorded an important out and smacked a ball into the ground.

It is a new month for Westbrook, who was bruised by the Yankees in his first playoff start and who won only once in September.

He was 6-9 this season. He silenced David Ortiz, Manny Ramírez and Mike Lowell.
