GLENDALE, Ariz. – While the White Sox avoid using their starting pitchers against American League Central opponents, the Indians figure they’ve seen their rivals so often a few spring training games won’t hurt.

So at the same time Jake Peavy was throwing 81 pitches on a back field against minor leaguers, Ubaldo Jimenez worked five solid innings against the Sox in a 5-2 victory Wednesday.

“I felt good,” Jimenez said. “I was able to go out there and throw all my breaking balls and fastball for a strike. In the first two or three innings, I was able to command the fastball in and away. I felt good.”
