Indians on the Verge

The Indians lead the Blue Jays 3-0 in going to the bottom of the ninth. Rookie Ryan Merritt pitched 4 1/3 shutout innings in his first post-season start. He has still not walked a batter in the big leagues. Bryan Shaw came on for an inning, and Andrew Miller carried the team through the eighth. The Indians are looking to return to the World Series for the first time since 1997.

Francisco Lindor is three for four in the game, while Carlos Santana and Coco Crisp homered.

The Blue Jays send up the top of the order, Jose Bautista, Josh Donaldson, and Edward Encarnacion.
