Jazz Chisholm Faces Potential Bench Spot for Game 1 Against Tolle

Manager Aaron Boone is considering platooning Jazz Chisholm Jr. and Anthony Volpe at second base for Game 1 against Red Sox lefty Payton Tolle. Chisholm, who recently returned from a right thumb sprain, expects to play and admits he would be angry to sit. Chisholm is 1-for-5 with a home run against Tolle in his career. Boone weighed Chisholm's limited recent playing time due to injury and the favorable matchup for the right-handed hitting Volpe when evaluating his postseason lineup options.
