The Cleveland Indians solidified their lineup and infield Saturday night by acquiring Kevin Seitzer from Milwaukee for outfielder Jeromy Burnitz.

“I’m excited about going to a pennant contender,” Seitzer said. “But I’m sad to be leaving the Brewers.”

Baltimore also was interested in Seitzer, 34, who batted .316 with 12 homers and 62 RBIs in 132 games for the Brewers this year. But Cleveland got him for Burnitz, 27, who batted .281 for the Indians with seven homers and 26 RBIs.
