This will be the first home game the Tigers will host in the playoffs since last year.
Tigers-Mariners Preview
The Mariners responded to Detroit’s gritty 3-2 win on Saturday night with their own tense victory in Game 2 on Sunday. Even with Tarik Skubal pitching, Seattle managed to score two home runs off the ace before a late-inning run broke a 2-2 tie.
Detroit will hope to respond during their first home game of the postseason at Comerica Park. Both teams need two more victories before they can move on to the American League Conference championship.
The Tigers were in this position a year ago when they faced off against division rivals in the ALDS. The Cleveland Guardians took the series in five games before losing to the New York Yankees.
