The New York Yankees sprinted to a 1-0 lead in the ALCS with a 5-2 victory in Game 1 in the Bronx, powered by home runs from Giancarlo Stanton and Juan Soto and a big performance from Carlos Rodón.

New York will try to gain more control over the series in Game 2 on Tuesday at Yankee Stadium, with top player Gerrit Cole on the mound. Cole started twice in the ALDS against the Royals – with the Yankees winning both games – and is going 1-0 in Game 2 of the American League Championship Series this postseason, with a 3.00 ERA in 12 innings with eight strikeouts and two walk freely.

Cleveland will counter with Tanner Bibee. He has logged 8 2/3 innings in two starts in these playoffs – both were the Guardians’ wins over the Tigers in their ALDS – and has struck out nine while walking three. Brayan Rocchio had two of Cleveland’s six hits in Game 1, including a solo home run in the sixth inning, but he will need more help from the middle of the Cleveland lineup. José Ramírez, Lane Thomas and Josh Naylor – Cleveland’s 3-4-5 hitters – combined to go 0-for-11 with a walk and five strikeouts in Game 1.
