CLEVELAND -- Rick Porcello's first postseason start since 2011 devolved into a home run derby with three Indians home runs in the third inning to open the American League Division Series at Progressive Field.
Roberto Perez led off the bottom of the third with an opposite-field loft to right. After Carlos Santana grounded out into an infield shift, Jason Kipnis pounced on a 1-0 fastball and sent it deep to right-center for another solo shot. An already raucous Cleveland crowd was roaring, and Porcello was reeling, when Francisco Lindor followed Kipnis' shot with his own homer to right.
