"I happen to think, over the course of the season, the two best teams are playing in the ALCS," Oakland general manager Billy Beane told MLB.com after his A's were eliminated by the Tigers on Thursday. "That's what I happen to believe. I think Detroit and Boston, in my mind, represent the two best teams. I think we were one of the best teams, but I think they represent the two best teams, and this is going to be a great matchup."
The pitching matchup for Saturday is Jon Lester against Anibal Sanchez. With Sanchez getting the win for the Tigers in game 2 last series, the veteran gets the nod for game 1 of the ALCS.
"It's a big day for me, especially because I'm going to start the series," Sanchez said. "I need to keep working. I need to be focused tomorrow. [Throwing] my first pitch is something I look forward to every outing. I'll try to feel comfortable like I [did] all year long."
Lester gave up two runs in almost eight innings during his outing in the previous round.
"He works hard four days leading up to a fifth-day start. He's a very concrete thinker -- that's the one description I've used for him for a number of years. And that allows him to, I think, achieve a high level of concentration and maintain it for the time that he's on the mound. He's an intense competitor. ... And that's the way he carries himself on the field."
