Indians-Red Sox Preview

(AP) -- Tim Wakefield has a chance to treat himself to a belated, yet very special, birthday present.

A day after he celebrated his 45th birthday, Wakefield tries a second time to earn career win No. 200 when he takes the mound for the Boston Red Sox against the Cleveland Indians on Wednesday night at Fenway Park.

Wakefield (6-4, 5.06 ERA) is on the verge of becoming the oldest major leaguer to win his 200th game. Charlie Hough is currently the oldest to do so at 44 years and 213 days while with the Chicago White Sox in 1992, the same year Wakefield recorded his first career win for Pittsburgh. (MORE)
