Tigers host Guardians in Game 3, bringing MLB playoffs back to Motor City for first time in decade
DETROIT (AP) - The Motor City has not hosted a playoff baseball game in a decade.
The long wait is almost over.
The Detroit Tigers play the Cleveland Guardians on Wednesday with their best-of-five AL Division Series tied at one game apiece, ending a drought that has dragged on since 2014.
"There’s a whole generation of kids here that haven't seen postseason baseball live," Tigers president of basketball operations Scott Harris said Tuesday. "Hopefully, they are loud from the very first pitch. I've seen the fans help us win games and I'm really excited to see what they can do."
