Cleveland ended the regular season with a loss but posted a winning record, won its division and earned a playoff bye. Messick allowed one run in three innings; Peterson gave up two in five. Cleveland opens the ALDS at Progressive Field next Saturday.
The recap says three of Cleveland's five starters remained in the rotation entering the playoffs without having missed a start. It also says the lineup began adding power after the trade deadline.
