 These teams split a four-game set in Houston in April, with Cleveland winning the first two games of the series, and the Astros taking the final two. This is the first trip back to Progressive Field for the Astros since wrapping up a three-game sweep in Game 3 of the 2018 ALDS with an 11-3 victory.

 Cleveland is an AL-best 12-5 since the All-Star break, while Houston has the second-best record in the junior circuit over that time at 11-6. Dating back to June 1, Cleveland is an MLB-best 34-14 (.708) with the top run differential in the majors over that time (+80).

 In 28 career regular season starts at Progressive Field, Justin Verlander has a 5.56 ERA, his highest at any park in which he has made at least 10 starts. Verlander has struck out more than 10 batters in each of his last two starts -- the only time he went three straight starts with more than 10 K's was in May 2009.

 Shane Bieber tossed a one-hit shutout against Toronto in his last start, giving him two shutouts with 10+ strikeouts this season. The last AL pitchers aged 24 or younger with two 10+ K shutouts in the same season were Frank Tanana and Dennis Eckersley, who both did so in 1976.

 Through 35 career games, Yordan Alvarez has 12 home runs and 36 RBI. Only two other players all-time have recorded 12+ HR and 36+ RBI through 35 career games: Albert Pujols and Rhys Hoskins (RBI became an official stat in 1920).

 With a couple of months left in his fifth MLB season, Francisco Lindor has hit 116 home runs. The only shortstops (based on primary position in career through that season) in MLB history with more HR through five seasons are Ernie Banks (136) and Nomar Garciaparra (117).

HP - Diaz, 1B - Segal, 2B - Carapazza, 3B - Wendelstedt

The Cleveland Indians hope an off day will be just what they need to cool their jets after an emotionally charged loss in their last outing.
The Indians begin a nine-game homestand on Tuesday when Shane Bieber (10-3, 3.44 ERA) takes the mound against fellow right-hander Justin Verlander (13-4, 2.86) and the Houston Astros in the opener of a three-game series.
