While he doesn’t yet have a home run in the post-season, he leads all batters with nine hits, including five doubles in the Jays’ four games. He also had 10 hits in seven games against the Jays this season, including two game-winning home runs (off Roberto Osuna and Brett Cecil) in a three-day stretch in August. Cleveland stole the most bases in the American League this season and are considered the league’s top base-running team. How the Jays control the running game will be a key question in the series . Francisco Liriano, who suffered a concussion in Game 2 of the ALDS when he was hit in the back of the head with a line drive, is eligible and expected to return to the Jays for Game 2 of the ALCS .
