One October game. Twenty-one strikeouts. Cleveland is in the ALCS.
October 10, 2026 was ALDS Game 5, and it was the only game on the board. The Cleveland Guardians scored 2, allowed 0, and finished a comeback from 0-2 against the Chicago White Sox. Gavin Williams struck out 12 in 5 2/3. José Ramírez hit a two-run homer in the fourth. Cleveland's staff struck out 21.
That is the board: Cleveland first at 7 team FP, Chicago second at -3. Williams sat first among pitchers at 26.66. Ramírez sat first among hitters at 7.
Top team fantasy scores (Saturday, October 10, 2026)
| Rank | Team | AthX Engine FP | Final | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cleveland Guardians | 7 | 2-0 | Guardians vs White Sox |
| 2 | Chicago White Sox | -3 | 0-2 | 3 H, 21 SO, 0-for-1 RISP (ESPN) |
Cleveland sits first because a 2-0 fills a team table: a win, two runs, none against. Chicago is second because there was no third club. Saturday was not a six-game card. It was one night at Progressive Field.

One featured game from Saturday
What stood out
The team board belonged to the club that scored two and allowed none. There was no second game to compare it with. A 2-0 is a better table than a 0-2. It is also the whole slate.
The pitcher board belonged to the Game 5 starter, not the five-out save. Smith sat second. Gaddis sat third. Burke still scored 7 in a loss because five innings and four strikeouts do not vanish when one pitch leaves the yard.
The hitter board belonged to Ramírez on a night almost nobody else scored. Halpin had two extra-base hits and still sat at 4. That is the version of Saturday the recap followed: the only game on the card, no invented sixth recap.
What now?
Saturday's AthX Engine scores are a record of Game 5. Cleveland won the series 3-2. The ALCS opens Monday in Tampa Bay. Use the board to compare nights, then check roles and news before you treat any number as more than production.
