One more do-or-die game awaits before MLB's final four is set.
The Guardians and Tigers will square off once more in a decisive Game 5 at Progressive Field for the right to move on and face the Yankees in the ALCS.
Runs figure to be at a premium in a rematch of the Game 2 pitching showdown between Tigers ace Tarik Skubal and former Tigers lefty Matthew Boyd. Neither starter allowed a run in their first meeting, but Detroit finally got to usually untouchable Cleveland closer Emmanuel Clase with a stunning three-run rally in the ninth to win.
Who will prevail this time and move on to New York? The Sporting News has you covered with everything that you need to know in order to watch postseason baseball today.
