Rain Delays Add Tension to Mariners-Tigers ALDS Showdown
The AL Division Series between the Seattle Mariners and Detroit Tigers has unfolded like a tightly contested playoff thriller, with both teams evenly matched through their first two games. Each squad claimed victory in a pair of nail-biting 4-3 games played in Seattle, where the Tigers triumphed in the opener after 11 innings, only for the Mariners to bounce back and secure a late-game win in Game 2.
Home Crowd Anticipation Meets Weather Woes
With Detroit fans eagerly anticipating the Tigers’ first home game since September 21, excitement quickly turned to frustration as rain delayed the start of Game 3. As the weather conditions improved, the stage was set for a showdown between Jack Flaherty, taking the mound for the Tigers, and Seattle’s Logan Gilbert, who was poised to deliver for the Mariners.
