The Cleveland Indians’ ability to keep one of the most potent offenses in the American League in check have them one win away from the sixth World Series appearance in franchise history. Cleveland turns to its ace Tuesday as it attempts to remain perfect in the postseason and complete a sweep of the AL Championship Series against the Blue Jays in Toronto.

Sanchez’s first career postseason start was one to forget as he surrendered six runs on three hits – two homers – and four walks over 5 2/3 innings against Texas in the AL Division Series but managed to walk away with a no-decision. That outing also took place at home, where the 24-year-old Californian went 6-1 with a 3.74 ERA in 13 turns during the regular season. Sanchez is 1-0 with a 5.06 ERA in three career games (two starts) against the Indians, including a no-decision on Aug. 20 in which he yielded five runs (four earned ) and four hits in four innings at Cleveland.

The Indians haven’t allowed multiple runs in an inning this postseason.

Toronto hit one homer in the series after belting eight in the three-game sweep over Texas and is 1-for-11 with runners in scoring position.

Cleveland LHP Andrew Miller struck out 13 of the 17 batters he faced in the ALCS.
