Four Reasons to Have Faith That the Indians Will Win Game Five of the ALDS Tonight

2. Jumping on C.C.

The Indians fell behind early 2-0 against the Yanks on Friday after a Gary Sanchez homer, but rallied right away against C.C. Sabathia on Friday for two runs, and even took a 3-2 lead at one point before the Yankees built an 8-3 lead.

It’s fairly obvious that the Indians need to get to Sabathia early in this one, and with the home crowd at a fever pitch early, the team should be able to knock in a run or two and get off to a quick start.

It’s the formula that won them 22 in a row, and should serve them well again tonight. A quick lead should equal a win.

    Well, you could have been right on at least one of your “predictions”!!! I also read your free agent article. As much as I like Bruce, the team cannot afford to drop $60m on him. They already have several outfielders. If anything, they will spend some money on Santana. He will be cheaper than Bruce, has become a very good first baseman and WANTS to stay in Cleveland. To your credit, I think you are correct about Shaw.
