Marlins put chill on Indians by breaking ninth-inning tie
By Ben Walker
CLEVELAND — Frozen fish?
Hah!
The Associated Press
The Florida Marlins came alive when the Cleveland Indians lost their cool, breaking a tie by scoring seven runs on a World Series record-tying three errors, in the ninth inning to win 14-11 night for a 2-1 edge.
Gary Sheffield hit one of Florida's three home runs and drove in five runs in the second highest-scoring game in Series history, behind the 1992 epic in which Toronto outlasted Philadelphia 15-14.
The Indians, meanwhile, played like fish out of water in blowing a 7-3 lead they took into the sixth inning. They rallied to make it close with four runs in the bottom of the ninth off Marlins closer Robb Nen.
Whether the weather — a blustery 49 degrees at gametime and a wind chill factor of 29 — was the only reason the score looked like an NFL final was uncertain. Certainly, it contributed to 17 walks
and six errors as pitchers and fielders struggled to get a grip.
But it was unlucky throw by Cleveland center fielder Marquis Grissom that enabled the Marlins to break a 7-all tie in the ninth.
Game 4 will be tonight with Tony Saunders of Florida facing Jaret Wright in a matchup of rookies.
Dennis Cook was the winning pitcher. Plunk took the loss, though relievers Alvin Morman and Jose Mesa also didn't 'fare well in the ninth.
The Indians scored four runs in the ninth on a bases loaded sacrifice fly by Fernandez, an RBI-single by Grissom and a two-run double by Bip Roberts.
The weather may be much worse for Game 4 with the forecast calling for temperatures in the mid-30s but no snow. It should be the coldest Series game in more than 20 years.
The Marlins got to use some of the 1,200 pounds of cold-wear gear they packed, while the Indians set up coffee makers and hot tea and hot chocolate stands in a room right behind their bench.

Chiefs worried by Rams' defense
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — It's the 5-2 Chiefs vs. the 2-5 Rams, in theory a gawky mismatch.
But it's games like these that keep the coaches of the 5-2 team tossing and turning, especially when their routines have already been thrown off by an unusual scheduling quirk.
"They are a dangerous team and this is a dangerous game," Kansas
City coach
Marty Schottenheimer
said of his
trip Sunday
to St Louis.
The Chiefs
Since beating Seattle in overtime on Sept. 28, the Chiefs have played twice
coming off a 31-3 victory Thursday night in which they put together their most complete game in two years, are 6-point favorites in the Trans World Dome.
Sept. 28, the Chiefs have played twice. They lost the following week to
They lost the following week to
Miami, took a week off, then beat the Chargers on Oct. 16.
"We've been off seven of the last 14 days." Schottenheimer said.
"The way the schedule has unfolded, we've spent as much time on holiday as we've worked. We've got to get back in the groove. That was the message we gave to our squad yesterday. Tomorrow, we'll come back in earnest."
The Rams have lost three straight games behind second-year quarterback Tony Banks.
The defense, along with the noisy dome, are worrying the Chiefs.
"They are outstanding on defense," Schottenheimer said. "They're at the top in takeaways defensively. In the critical areas of scoring zone defense and third down defense, they're extremely good. The front people are playing extremely well."
Defensive end Leslie O'Neal has four sacks for the year and 116.5 for his career. Defensive end Kevin
"We've got to get back in the groove. That was the message we gave to our squad yesterday. Tomorrow, we'll come back in earnest."

Carter and tackles D'Marco Farr and Bill Johnson all complement O'Neal on the line.
"They haven't put the pieces together. But the pieces are there. Leslie O'Neal looks like a guy who's on a mission," Schottenheimer said. "If it's not the best we've played this year, it's one of the two best."
