TORONTO -- Pitching has dominated the first two games of the American League Championship Series.The Cleveland Indians have pitched just a little better to lead the series 2-0 over Toronto and have outscored the Blue Jays 4-1.Its been the same story, good pitching on both sides, Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said on Sunday before his team worked out. A little offense on both sides. They just got the two home runs, really. And then (Francisco) Lindor has had two big hits in both games. A lot of similarities, but theyve been able to plate the runs. Not many of them, but more than we have.There has been some mystery surrounding Clevelands starter for Game 3 at Rogers Centre on Monday night.Right-hander Trevor Bauer was scheduled to start Game 2 before he suffered a 10-stitch cut on the little finger of his right hand while working on his drone.Josh Tomlin took his place and picked up the win Saturday when Cleveland took the game 2-1 and Bauer will now start Game 3.Hes been getting treatment the whole time, almost like a pitcher with a blister, Cleveland manager Terry Francona said. I really dont think its going to affect his start one way or the other, whether he gets them out or he doesnt. I dont think this is going to be a big deal.Bauer (0-0, 5.79 earned-run average in the postseason) will be opposing Toronto starter Marcus Stroman (0-0, 3.00 ERA).Its really a non-issue, Bauer said Sunday before Cleveland had its workout. Ive been able to throw normally and stuff.Bauer will be making his second career postseason start. He allowed five hits, including two home runs, and three runs in 4 2/3 innings and did not factor in the decision of Game 1 in the American League Division Series, a three-game Cleveland sweep of the Boston Red Sox.Bauer faced Toronto twice this season, going 1-0 with a 1.38 ERA. His win came when he pitched five innings in relief July 1 in the 19-inning, 2-1 victory at Rogers Centre that extended Clevelands winning streak to a club-record 14 games.He is 1-1 with a 6.27 ERA in four career games (three starts) against Toronto and is 1-1 with a 7.11 ERA in two career games at Rogers Centre.Stroman will be making his second postseason start this year and the fifth of his career. He is 1-0 with a 3.91 in his first four career postseason starts.He allowed four hits and two runs over six innings in a no-decision against the Baltimore Orioles in the wild-card game.Stroman said he is not concerned about the struggles of the Blue Jays hitters. I think thats baseball, sometimes you go in spurts, he said. Our offense is amazing, its been amazing all year. I count on every single one of those guys to pick me up.Stroman is 0-0 with a 1.29 ERA in two starts against Cleveland this season with 15 strikeouts in 14 innings. He is 0-0 with a 3.52 ERA in three career games against Cleveland, including two starts.The game will be at night with roof likely closed at Rogers Centre and that might help the hitting. The game Saturday was a 4 p.m. start outdoors at Progressive Field.In discussing how teams have more time to prepare for each postseason series than in the regular season, Francona said, But, I also think theres other things, too, like when you start at 4:10, youre giving the pitchers a huge advantage. And I understand it. Im not complaining about it, just the way it is. But if the sun is shining its difficult. I mean, really tough. So youre going five or six innings where, it doesnt mean youre not going to score, but youre at a disadvantage on offense.Cleveland left-hander Andrew Miller needs no such advantage. He has been the pitching star of the first two games, striking out five in each of his first two appearances -- working 1 2/3 innings in Game 1 and two innings in Game 2.To be honest with you, if hes on theres not a lot you can do with him, Gibbons said. Hes proved that over the last few years. We saw him a little bit with the Yankees. Hes got an overpowering fastball and hes got that incredible slider. If hes throwing strikes, theres a lot of swing and misses (on the), disappearing slider.Basket Adidas Nmd Homme Pas Cher . -- Playing time has been limited for Maxim Tissot this season, so the Montreal Impact defender made the most of his first scoring opportunity on Saturday.

All I care about is driving that race car right now. It is probably the most focused Ive been getting ready for a race. Im not amped up, or anything like that. Im just really relaxed and focused and feel good going into it.Try as he might to downplay it, this is not just another race or just another track for Stewart.Indiana is where he developed his affinity for dirt tracks and A.J. Foyt, and where his talent broke through the fierce, sometimes temperamental moments. It was here at Indianapolis that he knew he would define his career.After being born in Rushville, Indiana, and attending high school in Columbus, Indiana, Stewart got his first big break when former IMS CEO Tony George started his own series for promising American drivers like Stewart, who struggled to find job openings with IndyCar teams.Stewart quickly emerged as one of the series bright, young faces by winning the 1997 series championship. After five seasons and no Indianapolis 500 wins, Stewart left his home state for the higher-profile, better-paying NASCAR circuit that turned him into a megastar.Over the past 18 seasons, Stewart has made 601 starts, won 49 races and three Cup championships.But the Brickyard wins in 2005 and 2007 were the ones he cherished most, and picking up No. 50 on his home track would be a fitting end to a 20-year run at the Brickyard.It would be all right, I guess, Stewart joked. No, it would be cool because this is one of the marquee races. Everybody wants to win here. Definitely, I want to win here myself.Stewart insists he will not take any distractions into Sundays race even though the signs are all around that this weekend is different.His parents and stepfather sat in the fronnt row of Fridays pre-race news conference.dddddddddddd. At the end, he graciously accepted a gift from speedway president Doug Boles -- pieces of the fencing he climbed after each of his Brickyard wins.His answers sounded like a throwback to his early IndyCar days when he routinely responded to questions about track conditions or just about anything else at Indy with a nonchalant answer about throwing dirt on the track.I have no clue how many friends and family will be here this weekend, it was not my responsibility to get them all here, Stewart said when asked about potential distractions. I will see them after the race is over, but Im going to go to work here in a minute, and that is all I care about doing for three days.This weekend has started much like Stewarts season -- off script.The race billed as Farewell Smoke has been somewhat overshadowed by Jeff Gordons comeback bid in the No. 88 car. While his friends are disappointed that Stewart doesnt have the stage to himself, Stewart embraces it.He rallied from a rugged, injury-plagued start with three top-five finishes in the last four races, including his first win of the season at Sonoma, just like he did at Indianapolis. After finishing 24th on the speed chart with a fast lap of 180.505 mph Friday, he came within a whisker of earning his second Brickyard 400 pole. Hell start third, right behind pole winner Kyle Busch, after going 184.328 in qualifying.And it seems everyone has embraced the two sentimental favorites this weekend.To have Tony Stewart in his final race, Jeff Gordon in his final race -- Part 2, it is a big time, four-time Brickyard winner Jimmie Johnson said. I can only imagine how loud they are going to be at driver intros.Or how crazy the fans would get if the 45-year-old Stewart winds up scaling the fence one more time before focusing on team ownership full-time.Even now, Stewart cant quite find the proper description.Im not doing all the sentimental, crying stuff you guys think Im going to be doing, he said. Im going to race this weekend. ' ' '
