Congressman louis stokes is still helping people. He was a sharp dresser, and now his family is donating his tom introducing us to the first recipient. Reporter reggie washington couldnt believe it. He was trying on a delux suit owned and worn by congress man lewis stokes. He was a great person, but also happens to be a great africanamerican, and being an africanamerican male, have barack obama, it is great to receive a suit from one like him. Reporter stokes family decided donating his suits and other clothing theyre not doing any good in the closet i wants my dads legacy to live on. Reporter the stokes commitment to give back. They have the purpose to give someone another chance. I feel he would want his clothes in cleveland. He was ctowns baby boy. Stokes pick and design his suits. Classic with a little flair, president but not too much flare. Reporter which would go for about 1700 today. I thought i would never be able to afford a suit from a place like this. Reporter reggie planning to wear this to job interviews. I would put on that suit and feel like a million bucks and look like it. Reporter somewhere lewis stokes coming up, we too a look at how the indians won game one of the alcs, and a preview of game hi, everyone, and good morning. Wait a minute. Its a great morning. What a win last night for the indians, as they beat the blue jays ime so they sweep the red sox, beats the jays last night. They have not lost yet in the postseason, and head into the game tonight up 10 in the best of 7 series. Lets go back to last night. Terry francona had his guys ready to go. Kluber stranded 7 runners. He pitched 100 pitches. The playoffs. Francisco lindor, the big below off estrada blow of estrada 20 indians. Andrew miller, nice having this guy on our side. Huh . What a night for him. An inning and two thirds. He struck out the side in the 8th. A one, two, three 9th inning for cody, lindor with the final out, fitting, because he had the big hit 200 the indians win. Lets hear from lindor about the big tworun homer. Really, what i was trying to do that well to the at bat, just trying to stay down through the baseball, seeing some up higher, and stay inside the baseball. I mean, it, went out. Got that changeup up, and put a fantastic swing on it, and it was the difference tonight. He was able to take estraw a da that he estrada that he let trickle over the plate. So being able to take advantage was huge, especially for the bullpen. Trevor bower will now pitch in game three on monday, not today. Bower cut his hand while working on a drum. Weve all been there, but he had stitches on his right finger. Doctors say hell be able to pitch monday. He cant have anything covering the cut and it cant be bleeding. He wasnt doing something that he just i mean, he could have been opening a box in the kitchen. Those things happen, which it would arent have, but it wasnt done maliciously, it wasnt done by being silly, it just just happened. So josh tomlin will now pitch today if game two. Pumped since monday, and, really, tomlin looked great in fenway, so the end are confident. Tomlin has no issue bumping up and pitching today, and hell pitch at home now. Thats good. Better than pitching on the road. If youre a starter, you want your home crowd behind you. And happ, look at that e. R. A. Hes the starter for the blue jays today, and thats a little concerning if youre the indians. Tomlin coming off that good start against the red sox. Lets they only have one preseason game left, and thats a good thing, because the preseason really is boring, and last night nobody played as they lost to the bulls. So they will wrap it up up in columbus next week. But we have better news than anything talking preseason. J. R. Smith and the cavs have agreed to a contract. A reported fouryear deal worth 57 million, so just over 14 million a year. Thats a big win for smith who has been holding out during training camped a odds over the contract. J. R. Also announced his family will be having another baby. Made that announcement last night. So congratulations to j. R. Smith. Really shea a fan favorite, no question about it. The cleveland monsters Opening Night last night, and they have a celebration, as they won the cup last week. They took on the ice hogs, and they won 21 she browns have is not won this year. They will he at the same time to do that on the road tomorrow at tennessee, but the titans are a 7point favorite. Cody kessler starts. His backup will be hogan, the rookie out of stanford. Josh mccowan is out form tomorrow. Terrell pryor might each get kessler is back to start. And well have highlights later on tonight of the game between the indians and the blue jays. A man attacked me in a parking garage. Tried to stab me with an 8inch knife. But i carry a pistol. I fight back. Every woman has a right to defend herself with a gun if she chooses. Hillary clinton disagrees with that. Dont let politicians take away your right to own a gun. The sunglasses. Youre going to need this, too. Especially this morning, lots of sunshine out there. Keeping our heads a little warm. Exactly, because its a chillier start this morning. But here is what it looks like live from our Progressive Field tower cam. You can see the crews there doing a great job cleaning up after yesterdays big win at Progressive Field. And if you are so lucky to have tickets to this afternoons game, number one, here is what it looks like. By first pitch at 4 00 p. M. , looking at temperatures in the mid70s. I think well enjoy more sunshine by that point. Well start to build in a few extra clouds during the later afternoon into the evening. So by the 9th inning, looking at temperatures in the upper 60s and low 70s. So thats your day today. The rain returns tomorrow it will be a great day to just is it back and relax. Here until your sunday evening, and that leads to a much warmer workweek with temperatures back in the 80s. Not right now, though. Were currently in the 40s. Lower 50s in downtown. Nice and dry right nowpy think that for the most part, thats the way we stay. The reason why well see those showers tomorrow is with an approach of a cold front. And, again, this moves on in, more so tomorrow afternoon, into tomorrow evening. So thats going to be your sunday. Lets walk you through your forecast and show you what it looks like. So well pick things up at 10 00. So now through lunchtime, it looks awesome out there. If you have a friends or family doing were twoing to call it the pumpkin run in downtown. It looks great. Akron and canton, a great looking morning into the afternoon. Well slowly increase those clouds, just a little, and an isolated sprinkle chance, only about a 10 chance this most of us stay nice and dry. Watch what happens tomorrow evening. So if youre a third shift worker, i think that youll see a couple of those scattered showers in the mix. Temperatures today in the 70s. Live it, love it, again joy it. Lowtomid 60s ask what were forecasting overnight with your wind nation sevenday forecast. Showing you 80s back in store by monday and tuesday. A cold front moves in and increases our cloud ve wednesday, thursday, and on friday. So long story short, just a goodlooking day today ahead of us, be it and only gets better with more rain.
