ALCS, Game 6: Blue Jays vs. Royals lineups - MLB

Here are the Blue Jays and Royals lineups for Game 6 of the ALCS in Kansas City:

BLUE JAYS:
LF Ben Revere
3B Josh Donaldson
RF Jose Bautista
DH Edwin Encarnacion
1B Chris Colabello
SS Troy Tulowitzki
C Russell Martin
CF Kevin Pillar
2B Ryan Goins

SP David Price

Russell Martin is back behind the plate instead of Dioner Navarro and the rest of the Blue Jays’ lineup and batting order are standard. David Price has a 5.24 ERA in 56.2 career postseason innings and has never received the “win” in a playoff game he’s started, but tonight is exactly why the Blue Jays acquired the impending free agent former Cy Young winner.

ROYALS:
SS Alcides Escobar
2B Ben Zobrist
CF Lorenzo Cain
1B Eric Hosmer
DH Kendrys Morales
3B Mike Moustakas
C Salvador Perez
LF Alex Gordon
RF Alex Rios

SP Yordano Ventura

Same old, same old lineup and batting order for Royals manager Ned Yost. Yordano Ventura will make his fourth start of the playoffs after previously getting the ball in Game 1 and Game 4 of the ALDS and Game 2 of the ALCS.

NEW YORK — New York Mets left fielder Jeff McNeil was carted off the field Thursday after crashing into the left field wall in the first inning to rob the Washington Nationals’ Asdrubal Cabrera of a two-run extra-base hit.

McNeil, a natural infielder who has been manning both outfielder corners for the Mets since last year, raced at full speed to the warning track and made an impressive lunging catch for the final out of the inning. He crashed into the wall with both arms extended and raised his glove hand as he fell to indicate he had the ball.

But McNeil was in obvious pain as he covered his eyes with both hands and yelled before flinging his glove off. He briefly tried getting up but only made it a few steps with a trainer and manager Luis Rojas before sitting back down.

McNeil was able to walk to a cart on the warning track before being driven off the field.

The Mets said in the fourth inning McNeil was still being evaluated and an update would be provided after the game.

McNeil, who has started at third base and left field this season, is batting .293 with seven RBIs in 16 games. He made the All-Star team last season and is a career .319 hitter in 212 games.

Billy Hamilton pinch-hit for McNeil in the bottom half of the inning.
