In the first inning of Game 2 of the ALWC, George Valera gave the Guardians a 1-0 with his first career postseason home run.
Valera, who made his major league debut in September, had just two career home runs prior to his first playoff homer.
That ties pitcher Jim Bagby (who homered in the 1920 World Series) for the team record for fewest homers before hitting a home run in the playoffs.
The next fewest belong to Asdrubal Cabrera (three), Dale Mitchell (five) and Kyle Manzardo (five).
