TORONTO -- The Indians have pushed the Blue Jays to the brink of elimination and are now one win away from advancing to the World Series. Not even Trevor Bauer's right pinkie injury could slow them down on Monday night in Game 3.
Bauer was forced to exit with two outs in the first inning after a cut on the finger reopened and started dripping blood. The Indians' worst-case scenario didn't turn out to be that bad at all, as their bullpen responded by allowing just two runs over 8 1/3 innings to give the Tribe a 4-2 victory and a 3-0 lead in the best-of-seven American League Championship Series.
