The New York Yankees and the Cleveland Indians will come together at Progressive Field in Cleveland, Ohio on Thursday night for Game 1 of their MLB Playoffs 2017 AL Division Series. The game has a scheduled start time of 7.38 p.m. ET and can be watched on TV on the Fox Sports 1 network, or online through live stream (details below).
The Yankees made it here via a Wild Card game win on Tuesday night against the Twins, and they will be delighted to have made the ALDS this season.
However, they were forced to get 8 2/3 innings from its relievers as Luis Severino exited after claiming just one out.
Tonight the Yankees will throw the ball to Sonny Gray to see if he can guide them to a Game 1 win on the road to get themselves off to the perfect start in this best of five contest.
The Indians have decided not to throw Cy Young candidate Corey Kluber into Game 1, and that has caused some controversy. Manager Terry Francona has opted to keep their ace pitcher fresh for Game 2, which means Trevor Bauer has been given the responsibility to take the mound for Game 1 as Cleveland look to maintain home field advantage with a win today.
Whether Francona's decision will be praised or ridiculed will wholly depend on how things turn out tonight. However, the silver lining for them even in defeat would be that Kluber would still be available to start two of the final four potential games in this series.
Sonny Gray comes into the game on 10-12, compared to Bauer's 17-9, and with the Indians having home advantage tonight, Cleveland fans will be expecting nothing other than a win to get this series going tonight.
