CLEVELAND -- The Cleveland Indians plan for success is pretty simple: Take a late lead and turn the game over to the bullpen.The strategy worked Sunday in a 5-4 win over the Los Angeles Angels.Abraham Almonte singled home the go-ahead run in the sixth inning before Andrew Miller and Cody Allen retired the final nine hitters, sending Los Angeles to its 10th straight loss.Miller, acquired from the New York Yankees at the trade deadline, pitched the seventh and eighth while Allen worked the ninth for his 22nd save.Manager Terry Francona has quickly learned how to get the best from Miller, who has been with the team for two weeks.Sometimes the best thing to do is stay out of the way and let him go do his thing because that was phenomenal, Francona said.Millers day ended when he struck out Albert Pujols, leading to the ejection of the Angels slugger. Pujols was thrown out by plate umpire Clint Fagan after being called out on strikes.Pujols, also upset by a call earlier in the at-bat, was still unhappy following the game.If you start the game with one strike zone, you cant change it, he said. I just told him that (2-0 pitch) was terrible, then I walked away. Its embarrassing.Miller likes the way the back end of the bullpen, which includes Bryan Shaw, is beginning to mesh.Its still sorting itself out, he said.

We bunched together a pretty good rally to take the lead.Mike Napoli drove in a run with an infield hit and Francisco Lindor walked with the bases loaded.
