Right-hander Kevin Gausman will get the start for the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 1 of the American League Championship Series against Seattle.

The Blue Jays confirmed the news Saturday morning when they released their workout plans for the day at Rogers Centre. The team planned an evening batting practice as they prepare for the series opener against the Mariners on Sunday night.

Seattle earned the other berth in the best-of-seven ALCS by outlasting the visiting Detroit Tigers in a 15-inning marathon Friday night.

Gausman earned the win in Toronto's 10-1 victory over New York in Game 1 of the AL Division Series last weekend. He allowed one earned run and four hits over 5 2/3 innings.

The Blue Jays advanced by winning Game 4 on Wednesday night at Yankee Stadium.
