An American League Championship Series featuring Cleveland and Toronto is a fascinating matchup for so many reasons, and not just because Blue Jays executives Mark Shapiro (president/CEO) and Ross Atkins (general manager) worked for the Indians for nearly 40 combined seasons before joining the Blue Jays last year.
Neither team has represented the AL in the World Series since the 1990s, so that's at least one drought that will come to an end when the series begins on Friday night (8 p.m. ET on TBS in the U.S.; Sportsnet and RDS in Canada), and it doesn't take a ton of imagination to envision a scenario where Andrew Miller is in to face Jose Bautista with the game on the line -- even if "on the line" ends up being in the sixth inning.
