Guardians News: Home Runs Win Playoff Games

Writer Quincy Wheeler emphasizes that home runs dictate postseason success following the Cleveland Guardians' playoff loss to the Chicago White Sox. In that game, the White Sox hit one home run to the Guardians' zero, securing a victory as Cleveland's top six batters went a combined 0-for-18.

Looking ahead to Game 2, Wheeler notes an off-day allows the team to regroup after dealing with difficult afternoon shadows.
