The Cleveland Guardians are back home at Progressive Field for Game 3 of the ALCS against the New York Yankees in an 0-2 series hole.
While you can say all the Yankees did in Games 1 and 2 was defend their home field advantage in a series that will now shift back to Cleveland, ticket prices for Game 3 indicate fan excitement has taken a hit following the losses against the Bronx Bombers.
Still, the series is far from over. The Guardians can get right back into this ALCS by defending their own home field advantage, starting in Game 3.
Matthew Boyd will be back on the bump for first-year manager Stephen Vogt and the Guards. So, will he be able to slow down a lineup that features the dynamic duo of Juan Soto and Aaron Judge?
