Game times and TV assignments were still TBD as of early Sunday night.

The best-of-three series starts Tuesday and will continue Wednesday and, if necessary, Thursday. All games will be in Houston, and the only way the Tigers get a home playoff game this year is if they make it to the second round, under the expanded playoff format that launched in 2022.

Thursday wont be needed. Tigers will be heading to Cleveland Thursday unless the leave Wednesday evening.

With the Tigers dropping below KC today won’t they have to play the top seed Yankees if they get past Houston?

Nope

Seems MLB assumes higher seed wins in setting bracket and does not reseed.

Just savor each pitch. Playoff baseball is awesome and you guys deserve the experience. Don’t get ahead of yourselves. Just take it in as it comes.

The tension is what makes playoff baseball so much fun. Every single pitch has you on a knife’s edge. It’s so damn cool. Keep that feeling pure. That’s what I meant.
