Mariners Stay Home to Avoid Fatigue After 15-Inning Win Sets up ALCS Battle with Blue Jays

On Sunday, the Toronto Blue Jays will start right-hander Kevin Gausman in Game 1 of the ALCS at Rogers Centre, the club confirmed via workout plans and batting practice.
After wrapping up the ALDS, the Blue Jays advanced by eliminating the New York Yankees in a four-game series on Wednesday, while Seattle reached the ALCS with a 15-inning marathon win over the Detroit Tigers on Friday.
After a 5.2-inning, one-run outing in ALDS Game 1, Kevin Gausman allowed four hits, two walks and struck out three, earning the win in Toronto's 10-1 victory over the New York Yankees last week.
Sources say Bryce Miller is expected to start for the Mariners, though he would be on short rest after their taxing win on Friday.
The series schedule has Game 2 on Monday in Toronto; if needed, Games 6 and 7 will be at Rogers Centre on Oct. 19 and Oct. 20, with the ALCS winner advancing to the World Series.
