The Yankees were always going to have a tough battle in Game 1 of the ALCS. After winning a five-game ALDS slugfest against the Guardians, they had to turn around play in Houston about 24 hours later against an Astros team that had been off since Saturday.The result is a 1-0 lead for the hosts after 4-2 victory Wednesday. Yankees starter Jameson Taillon held out for as long as he could, going Nerlens Noel Jersey 4 1/3 innings and giving up just one run. But three solo home runs from the Astros two off Clarke Schmidt and one off Frankie Montas gave the Astros a lead the Yankees just couldn't overcome.Part of the reason the Yankees for that was Justin Verlander, who struck out 11 over six innings and had just one slip-up, a home run to Harrison Bader. Verlander returned to his postseason brilliance after a rocky ALDS start against the Mariners, and outside of some struggles from Rafael Montero, the bullpen pitched well. The Yankees struck out 17 times as a team in Game 1 to just two strikeouts from the Astros, the highest disparity between two teams in playoff history, MORE: In Game 2, the Yankees will have Luis Severino on the mound while the Astros will go with Framber Valdez. Severino comes in with a 4.76 postseason ERA; Valdez's is 3.18.The Yankees' goal is simple: Steal one game and go back to the Bronx tied 1-1. If they don't, they'll have an even steeper uphill battle against the Astros at home.Here's what you need to know about Game 2 of the ALCS, including broadcast information and start time.MORE: Channel:TBS (U.S.) | Sportsnet (Canada)Live stream:TBS app, (U.S) |Sportsnet NOW (Canada)Game 2 of the ALCS will be broadcast on TBS.
