The Guardians whose $68 million payroll is a fraction of the Yankees’ $274 million, led 2-1 in the best-of-five series.

MLB Playoffs: Alvarez, Astros resume series vs Mariners

The Seattle Mariners need a new plan for locking down October-tested Astros star Yordan Alvarez, because what they tried in Game 1 certainly didn't work. The two NL Division Series, pitting the Phillies vs. the Braves and the Padres against the Dodgers, have the day off. Castillo, acquired in July from the Cincinnati Reds, could be Seattle's best chance to slow Alvarez and the Astros. The two-time All-Star pitched 7 1/3 shutout innings to beat Toronto in the AL wild-card opener. They split the first two games of their best-of-five Division Series against the Braves in Atlanta.
