Indians notebook: Corey Kluber having historic October; Lonnie Chisenhall comes down with illness

CHICAGO: Few pitchers in baseball history have had an October like the one Indians ace Corey Kluber has put together this postseason.

Kluber has a Cy Young Award to his name already, but his performance through the Indians’ run to the World Series might end up being his defining moment from a national perspective.

In five starts, Kluber has allowed only three earned runs in 30u2153 innings for an ERA of 0.89. Among pitchers with at least 30 innings in a single postseason, that is the second-best mark all-time, behind only the Los Angeles Dodgers’ Burt Hooton in 1981.
