The Chicago White Sox are sitting at home watching another AL Central rival dominate the postseason. After the Kansas City Royals dominated the postseason last year and won its first World Series in 30 years, the Cleveland Indians are doing the same this year.
The Indians are led by a dominant pitching staff that features just two starters, but is backed by a very strong bullpen this postseason. Cleveland’s team ERA through 12 postseason games is 2.00. The Indians bullpen ERA is 1.56 through 52 innings pitched this postseason.
With the Indians on the verge of winning its first World Series since 1948, the team’s bullpen has been the reason its been successful this postseason.
