    Paul McCartney makes it 'Yesterday' once more at first of 2 ...
    CLEVELAND, Ohio – More than 18,000 baby boomers – and a few Gen-Xers and Millennials – were getting antsy. Sir Paul McCartney was supposed to take the Quicken Loans Arena stage Wednesday night at 8 and he was late. Like LATE late! More than 20 minutes. And then, reality set in, and we all decided – heck, we waited 50 years. What's a few more minutes for what amounted to the first Beatles concert in Cleveland since Paul and his buddies, John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr thrilled 24,6..

    If Cleveland Indians make postseason, will Brandon Guyer replace ...
    CLEVELAND, Ohio – The Indians are preparing for life without Abraham Almonte. It is one of the reasons why Brandon Guyer drew a start against Chicago right-hander Anthony Ranaudo on Wednesday night at Progressive Field. The other reason is that Guyer, who usually faces lefties, is the only player on the Tribe's 25-man roster who has faced Ranaudo, recalled from Class AAA Charlotte before the game. "Guyer has two hits against him, and one of them is a home run," said manager Terry Francona. T..

    Clinton, Trump agree on something: He won't change
    CLEVELAND — Hillary Clinton warned Ohio voters today that despite a makeover in Donald Trump’s campaign staff and possibly a new affinity for prepared speeches, he won’t fundamentally change in the 82 days until Election Day. But by bashing Trump over tax proposals she says would primarily benefit the rich, Clinton also demonstrated she isn’t changing from the script that Democrats have used in the past several presidential elections. One thing that did change today was, for the first time in..

    Celebrate National Aviation Day. Seriously. 60-Second Know-It-All ...
    CLEVELAND, Ohio - At its face value, "National Aviation Day" (tomorrow, August 19) might not call for a trip to the Hallmark store. Routine, often irritating, aviation - at least as we experience it on airlines today - hardly seems to merit much in the way of celebration. But this is Ohio. Aviation was invented here. It's our story. And in any case, we've got one of the country's best air shows coming here in a scant couple of weeks — perfect time to start getting into the spirit of the thin..
