Mike Napoli hit a two-run homer and the Indians completed a three-game sweep.Miller figures to become a setup man for closer Cody Allen.When you make moves like this, its exactly what you need, said second baseman Jason Kipnis, who drove in three runs. Its a jolt in the arm.The Indians also tried to acquire Jonathan Lucroy from Milwaukee, but the All-Star catcher refused to waive his no-trade provision.Kluber (10-8) struck out seven and walked two, retiring Max Muncy and Ryon Healy to strand runners on second and third in the seventh. He is 4-1 in his last seven starts.You try to put up as many zeroes as you can and the offense put up eight runs, so its a good day, Kluber said.Three relievers completed the six-hitter.Sonny Gray (5-10) gave up seven runs and eight hits in 3 1/3 innings for the As, who started 9-4 after the All-Star break before getting swept.Felt good about where we were, Oakland manager Bob Melvin said. We ran into a buzz saw here.Following a 36-minute rain delay at the start, Cleveland went ahead in a five-run third that included Napolis homer, Kipnis two-run single and Francisco Lindors sacrifice fly.Napolis team-leading 24th home run this season was his 1,000th career hit. Lonnie Chisenhall, Tyler Naquin and Abraham Almonte each had two hits.Cleveland maintained a 4 1/2 game lead over Detroit in the AL Central and manager Terry Francona knows the Indians need production throughout lineup to stay on top.We need to be that kind of team where were getting contributions and not giving pitchers innings off, he said.Roberto Perez was 1 for 23 this season when Gray walked him in the third, loading the bases. Perez singled in a run in the fourth.NO LUCROYFrancona had no comment about Lucroys decision to veto the trade that would have given the Indians a much-needed boost behind the plate.I dont know the specifics of why he chose to use that no-trade, but he had that in his contract, so thats his right, Kluber said.
