Meanwhile, the Cleveland Guardians will send their ace, Shane Bieber, in a must-win scenario at Yankee Stadium. So far, the biggest headache for manager Terry Francona is his offense during the postseason: only four runs after 33 innings.

New York Yankees vs Cleveland Guardians: Storylines
Shane Bieber had a 13-8 record during the 2022 MLB regular season for the Guardians with a 2.88 ERA and 198 strikeouts. He will be the starter for Game 2 at Yankee Stadium. In 2020, on Game 1 of the American League Wild Card Series, Bieber took the mound against New York allowing seven runs and nine hits in 4 2/3 innings. Cleveland lost that game (12-3) and was eventually eliminated. Nevertheless, in that same season, Shane Bieber achieved the American League Triple Crown and won the Cy Young Award. If he finds that version, Cleveland might steal a win from the Bronx.
Aaron Judge set a new single-season American League record with 62 home runs, but he went 0 for 3 with three strikeouts on Game 1 against Cleveland. Gleyber Torres and Giancarlo Stanton also were hitless and that must change if the Yankees want to take a 2-0 lead in the ALDS. Nestor Cortes has been spectacular on the mound with a 12-4 record and a 2.44 ERA during the regular season. He is Aaron Boone’s starter for Game 2.
