The Yankees ended up being their own worst enemy in Game 2 of the series as they made a couple of mistakes that costed them greatly. Those mistakes ended up directly influencing the score. Josh Donaldson made a mistake on a pitch to the box that resulted in one of the runs that made him lose 4-2 in the tenth inning.
New York’s chosen starter is Luis Severino, who will be making his start number four after having been dealing injuries since July 15. In his three previous appearances, he pitched a total of 16.0 innings and allowed just 6 hits and 3 runs, so he seems to be at his best after his career was hindered by many of physical problems.
Starting pitcher: Luis Severino (7-3, 3.18 ERA, 1.00 WHIP).
Injured: Zach Britton (shoulder), Chad Green (elbow), Frankie Montas (shoulder), Andrew Benintendi (wrist), Michael King (elbow), Luis Gil (elbow), Stephen Ridings (shoulder), Ron Marinaccio (leg).

Among all the teams participating in this 2022 MLB American League Postseason, Cleveland was perceived as the team with the wakest offensive, but as one of the teams with the best pitching. Therefore, taking advantage of their opponent’s mistakes was key to winning yesterday. It also helped to score more than two runs in this postseason for the first time, and so they will try to take advantage of every opportunity they can get in the future.
Triston McKenzie will open the game, and the Guardians will be relying on him. His first performance of the postseason limited the Tampa Bay Rays to just 2 hits in 6.0 innings pitched, which was his third consecutive performance in which he allowed one run or less.
Starting pitcher: Triston McKenzie (11-11, 2.96 ERA, 0.95 WHIP).
Injuries: No injuries.
JefeBet Prediction
We mentioned it in Game 2 , and we’ll say it again: the Yankees are having a hard time scoring in this series. Of their four runs scored, three came on homers, while the other came on a fly. The bad news for New York is that McKenzie has allowed just three homers in six starts and a total of 38.2 innings since the start of September.
Moreover, as we also mentioned, Cleveland has not exactly been a team with a formidable offense, and, if they scored four runs yesterday, it was because they were able to take advantage of their opportunities. With Luis Severino on the mound, they will presumably not have much margin to score, and once again they will have to squeeze the most out of every offensive action they have.
So far we have had no reason to think that a game in this series will have a lot of runs, and we will keep that thinking so until both teams prove us otherwise.
Forecast: Under (CLE 3 – NYY 2)
