Detroit Tigers, New York Yankees pay tribute to 9/11 at Yankee Stadium
Detroit Tigers, New York Yankees commemorate 9/11 at Yankee Stadium in New York on Sept. 11, 2025.
The Detroit Tigers are flying south for a three-game series in Florida.
After beating the New York Yankees in a three-game series by a combined score of 26-12, the Tigers will play the Miami Marlins in a weekend series from Friday, Sept. 12 to Sunday, Sept. 14 at loanDepot Park in Miami.
The Tigers, who have a commanding 8½ game lead in the American League Central, are looking to step on the gas pedal as the playoffs approach. They currently have the No. 2 seed in the AL playoff race, five games ahead of the Houston Astros and half a game behind the Toronto Blue Jays for the top seed.
Should they finish with either the No. 1 or No. 2 seed, the Tigers would bypass the wild-card round and go straight to the division series, where they would have home-field advantage. Should they get the No. 1 seed, they would have home-field advantage in the championship series, as well.
Here’s what you need to know about their upcoming series against the Marlins.
The Tigers are starting a three-game set against the Miami Marlins in Miami on Friday, Sept. 12.
Date: Friday, Sept. 12.
Time: 7:10 p.m. ET.
Location: loanDepot Park, Miami
