The Tigers can clinch a spot in the ALCS with a victory over Tanner Bibee and the Guardians.
Are you all the way back in on the MLB postseason? I’ll be dipping my toe in this evening after licking my wounds for almost a week. As always, a Yankee loss would help the cause.
Guardians at Tigers, 6:08 pm, TNT, Tigers lead 2-1
Starters: RHP Tanner Bibee (12-8, 3.47 ERA) vs. TBD
The Tigers are a win away from riding their hot second half straight into the ALCS.
Yankees at Royals, 8:08 pm, TBS, Yankees lead 2-1
Starters: RHP Gerrit Cole (8-5, 3.41 ERA) vs. RHP Michael Wacha (13-8, 3.35 ERA)
Gerrit Cole and Michael Wacha will face off for the second time in the series. Cole allowed four runs (three earned) on seven hits, two walks, and a home run over five innings last week. Wacha allowed three runs on four hits over four innings. Neither team earned a decision in a 6-5 New York victory.
