The New York Yankees advanced to the American League Championship Series by beating Cleveland in Game 5 of the ALDS on Tuesday night. The Yanks' reward? An overnight trip to Houston to face the best team remaining in these playoffs and likely AL Cy Young Award winner Justin Verlander. First pitch for tonight's Game 1 between the Yankees and Astros is scheduled for 7:37 p.m. ET. The game will air on TBS. Here is the Yankees' lineup.
Yankees starting lineup, ALCS Game 1, October 19
Update – Stanton is indeed starting in left field in Houston with the short porch. We should see him start there on the road and the Yankees go with a different look at home. Oswaldo Cabrera is out of the lineup for the first time this postseason. Matt Carpenter will DH and bat sixth.
