Guardians’ Gavin Williams Starting Game 5 vs. White Sox After Closing Game 4
Williams threw 18 pitches and 12 strikes in relief as Cleveland forced a Game 5, leaving his availability for Saturday uncertain.
- On Saturday, Gavin Williams will start the winner-take-all Game 5 of the American League Division Series for the Cleveland Guardians against the Chicago White Sox at Progressive Field.
- Manager Stephen Vogt originally planned a bullpen session for Williams on Thursday, but inserted the right-hander to protect a lead after Cade Smith surrendered a home run to Miguel Vargas and walked Munetaka Murakami.
- Williams threw 18 pitches to record the final three outs during Thursday's 9-5 victory; the Guardians face questions about closer Cade Smith, who threw 49 pitches over Games 3 and 4.
- Trusting his starter, Vogt said, "We want him to have the ball, and it's his game," noting the game will dictate whether Williams takes it the whole way.
- Seeking to complete a comeback from an 0-2 series deficit, the Guardians face Chicago White Sox right-hander Sean Burke in the winner-take-all contest.
