Should the Tigers have a champagne celebration today for having scored 9 runs?

He can pitch the 8th on Friday!

I like how the fun is being spread around. 6 different Tigers with extra base hits. Three doubles (Dingler, Torres, Perez) and 3 homers (Greene, Baez, Torres).

Tigers lead!

2 on 2 out. After 2 strikes with 2 out 0 on. Would be crushing to give up a run here.

Really need a clean inning here to keep the momentum.

Life!

A run!

3-0 Seattle. This feels like a repeat of about 15 games we have seen the past month.

Holton gives up hits to first two hitters he has faced. No reason he has to be in there so soon.

One Tiger pitcher baserunner through 3 innings. This is the Tigers’ 7th playoff game and they’ve scored a grand total of 2 runs in the first 3 innings of those games.

Naylor singles in a run and the Mariners are in business, leading 1-0.

I think the Wings will sneak into the playoffs. That's all I can ask for now. Then things should get more interesting.

I agree. It not only won't be because the Tigers are cheap but also won't be because he thinks the Tigers aren't competitive or trying to win. The Tigers have made the LDS two straight years. Most years the AL Central will be among the weakest of divisions. The Tigers' 2025 season might end on the same day as that of the Cubs and Yankees, while the Mets among others are already done. The Tigers should have their share of playoff appearances over the 5-7 next years where Skubal could further make a name for himself if he stayed. But he will leave as a business decision, fine.

I think the Tigers home crowd needs their moment, even if it only delays the end by a couple of days. Two home wins since August 23, getting swept by Cleveland at home, playoff spot clinched in Boston, wildcard series won in Cleveland. Nothing at Comerica. Let's have a nice stirring win today and see what happens in a Friday coin flip.

Plus I, as a diehard Tigers fan, could barely make it through today's game. Any neutral would have clicked off by the 5th inning. Yankees-Blue Jays has star power and run scoring.

Now 9-6. And the direct impact it has on the Tigers is that if the Yankees win the Tigers game remains at 3pm. If the Jays complete the sweep, the Tigers play at 7.

Need two more baserunners to bring the tying run to the plate.

The Tigers have won 2 home games since August 23. Today’s loss will put them at 2-12 at Comerica since then.

This has to be the most boring, least suspenseful playoff baseball game I’ve ever watched in full.

All that work to scrape out one run and then, whack, Seattle gets it right back.

3-0 already feels like 7-0 like others have said, but it feels like it’s about to be 7-0 for real.

Broadcast and station unaltered here in Canada. Maybe I should live stream on TikTok my phone aimed at my tv and post a link.

Whew, I thought off the bat Naylor just ended it.
