A look at what’s happening around the majors today:

MARQUEE MATCHUP

Shane Bieber dominated this year for Cleveland, leading the American League in wins (8), ERA (1.63) and strikeouts (122). He didn’t allow a run in six of his 12 starts.

Gerrit Cole delivered for the Yankees in his first season since signing a $324 million, nine-year contract, going 7-3 with a 2.84 ERA.

Now they meet in the playoff opener at Progressive Field, a classic pitching duel in the making on the first day of the postseason.

“We’re fired up,” Bieber said. “We think this is a good matchup.”

For all Bieber and Cole have accomplished in the shortened regular season, it will mean little if they don’t perform well to start the best-of-three series.

HEALING HANDS

Barry Larkin is gladly giving Major League Baseball a helping hand in these playoffs. Two of them, actually.

Look closely at the bats being swung and you might notice something on the knobs: a label with a graphic design of Black and white hands clasped over the words “Heal” and “Unite.”

They’re the product of Larkin’s Project Unity, an initiative headed by the Hall of Famer to draw people together on the diamond and beyond. Endorsed by MLB, they were sent in team colors to every clubhouse in advance of the playoffs.

“My hope is that they’re embraced by many players,” the longtime Cincinnati Reds shortstop said.

WE’RE PLAYING WHO?

In a year where so much about baseball has looked different, this 16-team postseason has at least one throwback element.

“It’s like the old days, man, when you played a team you’ve never played before. It’s exactly what it is,” said Sandy Alomar Jr., the acting manager for the Indians. “It’s very strange.”

Seven of this week’s eight wild-card series are pitting clubs that haven’t seen each other all year, an unusual quirk after the regular season schedule was staged regionally amid the pandemic.

That means a lot of video and scouting work, especially for players that haven’t been around the block. For instance, Yankees catcher Kyle Higashioka has only played 72 regular season games, including just two against wild-card foe Cleveland. The 30-year-old said New York provided him with a trove of data to peruse Monday, and he was cross-checking all of that with video work.

“Want to have that extra edge to hopefully give you the advantage in the game,” he said.

Higashioka will start the opener instead of Gary Sánchez. The two-time All-Star hit .147 this year, which would have been lowest in the majors by far if he had enough at-bats to qualify. Sánchez also has been plagued by passed balls throughout his career.
