CLEVELAND (AP) — Tied at 2-all, the Indians and Yankees will meet in a decisive Game 5 tonight in the AL Division Series.
Indians ace Corey Kluber will face New York’s CC Sabathia as the teams try to earn a spot against the Houston Astros in the ALCS.
The team could have slugger Edwin Encarnacion back after he missed two games with a badly sprained ankle.
Manager Terry Francona said Encarnacion has improved and could be available for the decisive series finale.
Encarnacion will test his ankle before the team makes a decision on his playing status.
Francona said he has four possible lineups for Game 5.
