BEREA, Ohio -- Johnny Manziel waved both arms as if he was quieting the home crowd before a big play. Really, he just wants to fade into the background a bit. Good luck with that. Beaten out by Brian Hoyer to be Clevelands starter, the Browns rookie quarterback said Wednesday that hes disappointed he wont be on the field against Pittsburgh in the season opener on Sept. 7. Manziel knows he didnt do enough during training camp and the preseason to convince coach Mike Pettine to choose him over Hoyer, who overcame a serious knee injury and then held off the first-round draft pick to keep the job. Manziel believes the focus should be on Hoyer. "Im the backup quarterback," Johnny Football said. "I shouldnt be in the spotlight." It always seems to find Manziel though, and that will likely remain the case even if hes on the sideline watching Hoyer. Manziel said he has no regrets about the way he approached his competition with Hoyer, which ended after the Browns coaching staff met Tuesday night to evaluate Clevelands two quarterbacks, both of whom have performed poorly. Manziel was criticized for some weekend partying, but the former Heisman Trophy winner insisted he wouldnt change a thing. Hes growing and maturing and hopes to one day lead an NFL team. This is all new to him. "Ill learn how a season goes," he said. "Now next time I come into training camp I wont be surprised by it. Next time I come into OTAs, I wont be surprised by it. But I wouldnt go back from the point after the draft to now and change a single thing. Im going to continue to live my life and the off-season is the off-season. Im going to travel places, Im going to go places, Im going to do things and thats going to have no effect. "Obviously I need to do it in the proper way, but Im still going to continue to have fun in my life and continue to live my life, and I dont think any of that really slowed me in this competition. I think more than anything, if you come out and play well, it makes the decision a lot easier." Pettine announced in a release before practice Wednesday that hell go with Hoyer, who made three starts in 2013 before tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee last season. Pettines decision ends weeks of competition and analysis, and the Browns are hoping it will allow Hoyer to relax and build some chemistry with Clevelands struggling offence before they meet the dreaded Steelers, their long-time rivals. The Browns play their first home preseason game on Saturday against St. Louis. Hoyer was informed by Pettine just moments before a team meeting. Hoyer said he didnt even have enough time to call his family. Its a dream come true for the six-year veteran, who grew up in Cleveland rooting for the Browns. "For me, its excitement," Hoyer said. "This is what I worked for for a whole year to get back to. Obviously, its good to move forward and move on with the decision being made and get back to work and get ready for St. Louis. Like I said all along, its been my mentality this whole off-season and training camp to come out here and act like the starter and be the starter and now that its official we can move on."

Tomlin threw the second complete game of his career, throwing a one-hitter with a career-high 11 strikeouts in Clevelands 5-0 victory over Seattle . Tomlin (5-5) didnt walk a batter and a leadoff single by Kyle Seager in the fifth inning was the only blemish on his evening. It was the second complete game of Tomlins career and the first one-hitter by a Cleveland pitcher since Billy Traber did it against the Yankees on July 8, 2003. "He commanded so well," manager Terry Francona said. He was expanding (the strike zone). He showed in to keep them honest and then hed go away. A little farther. A little farther, just leading guys to pitches. "That was just a tremendous outing." Its only the third time since 2002 that a pitcher has recorded a one-hit shutout with at least 11 strikeouts and no walks. St. Louis Shelby Miller struck out 13 in a 3-0 victory over Colorado on May 10, 2013. San Franciscos Matt Cain equaled Tomlin with 11 strikeouts in a 5-0 win over Pittsburgh on April 13, 2012. "I felt good and I knew I was commanding the ball well to both sides of the plate," Tomlin said. "I had to have a good changeup today to get them off everything else." The Indians jumped on Mariners starter Roenis Elias (7-6) for a pair of runs in the first inning. Asdrubal Cabrera doubled and scored on a single from Michael Brantley. Brantley advanced to second on the throw home and scored on a double by Carlos Santana to give the Indians a 2-0 lead. Mike Aviles singled with one out in the fifth and came around to score on Michael Bourns double. A balk by Elias moved Bourn to third and Cabreras sacrifice fly scored Bourn to givee the Indians a 4-0 lead.dddddddddddd Meanwhile, the Mariners couldnt solve Tomlin. He retired the first 12 batters he faced with some help from right fielder Ryan Raburn. He tracked down a deep line drive from Seager with a diving grab on the warning track in the second inning. "Great catch," Francona said. "Im glad it doesnt get lost two hours later because that was a really nice play." Seager singled to lead off the fifth and took second on a wild pitch and advanced to third when the throw from catcher Yan Gomes sailed into centre field. He was stranded when Tomlin struck out Michael Saunders to end the inning. "Our at-bats were not at-bats we want to talk about," Seattle manager Lloyd McClendon said. "We want to forget about them. It was one of those nights." Gomes homered off Elias in the sixth inning to extend Clevelands lead to 5-0. NOTES: Tomlin is 4-1 with a 3.41 ERA in five career starts against Seattle and 3-0 with a 2.12 ERA at Safeco Field. ...
