Locked On Tigers

Detroit Tigers defeated the Houston Astros 5-2 to sweep the AL Wild Card Series and advance to the American League Divisional Round. Detroit Tigers secure the team’s first MLB playoff series win in 10 years and face the Cleveland Guardians. The Tigers were powered by an eighth-inning rally, highlighted by Andy Ibanez’s clutch bases-clearing double, driving in three key runs. Parker Meadows got the scoring started with a solo home run in the sixth inning, and Matt Vierling’s heads-up baserunning put the pressure on Houston's bullpen. Detroit's pitching staff collectively held the Astros to just two runs, with winning pitcher Sean Guenther and closer Will Vest sealing the deal. Despite strong outings from Hunter Brown and Bryan Abreu, Houston’s bullpen faltered, with Ryan Pressly taking the loss. This victory propels the Tigers to a 2-0 series win, advancing them further in the postseason.MLB Postseason Schedule: https://www.mlb.com/postseasonDetroit Tigers RecordsDetroit Tigers Overall 86-76Detroit Tigers Home
