Five days before the start of the World Series, Alex Cora, the manager of the Boston Red Sox, has time to align his rotation of pitchers.

Cora, speaking Friday on WEEI, confirmed that the ace, Chris Sale, would play in Sunday's first game at Fenway Park, facing the Los Angeles Dodgers or Milwaukee Brewers.

The National League championship series is tied at three games each. The seventh game will be Saturday night in Milwaukee.

Cora said that he would wait to know the opponent before deciding on the rest of the rotation. But the manager said David Price – awesome in the fifth game against the Houston Astros against ASCS on Thursday at ALCS – was "likely" to start the second game.

Sale has not played since Saturday's loss to the Astros in the first game, against the ALCS. He was put away by a virus in the stomach that sent him to the hospital on Sunday.

Cora said Sale had regained strength since his release Monday from Massachusetts General Hospital, where he had been observing Sunday night. The club did not specify the harm or treatment of Sale.

The Red Sox returned to Boston on Friday morning and were greeted by a banner from the ALCS Championship already hanging at Fenway Park.
