Tigers vs. Guardians ALDS score: Live updates, highlights from Game 3 at Comerica Park

The Detroit Tigers, having grabbed homefield advantage with a stunning 3-0 victory in Game 2 of the ALDS, look to move within a game of winning the best-of-five series in the first playoff game at Comerica Park in a decade.

Once again, Tigers manager A.J. Hinch played coy with announcing his Game 3 starter; he would only tell reporters on Tuesday that two pitchers were unavailable: left-hander Tarik Skubal, who threw seven scoreless innings in a Game 2 no-decision, and right-hander Reese Olson, who threw five innings in relief in the Tigers’ Game 1 loss.

The Tigers ultimately landed on rookie right-hander Keider Montero to kick things off after he showed he had made some progress in working out some kinks in Game 1, throwing two innings and allowing no runs with three strikeouts in Game 1.

The Guardians, meanwhile, will start 13-year veteran Alex Cobb. The right-hander has a pair of postseason appearances, back in 2013 with the Tampa Bay Rays. More recently, he has made just three starts this season, hampered by injuries. The most recent of which is a blister on the middle finger of his throwing hand, which cost him most of the final month of the season.

The first pitch for Game 3 is at 3:08 p.m. at Comerica Park in Detroit. The game will be televised on TBS and can be streamed on Sling. The Tigers are a slight -115 moneyline favorite, according to BetMGM.

Detroit Tigers vs. Cleveland Guardians Game 3 pregame reading

TRENDING: Freep’s Tigers beat writer is noticeably absent from coverage. Here’s why.

While Carpenter’s 423-foot blast got all the attention, he wouldn’t have gotten to the plate against Cleveland closer Emmanuel Clase if not for shortstop Trey Sweeney reaching base first. Sweeney, of course, came over to the Tigers as a prospect included in the deal that sent right-hander Jack Flaherty to the Los Angeles Dodgers. But the Freep’s Jeff Seidel says the shortstop is anything but a throw-in.

Comerica Park will almost certainly be rocking for its first playoff game since Oct. 5, 2014 — a 2-1 loss to end a sweep by the Baltimore Orioles in the ALDS. The Tigers haven’t won a playoff game at Comerica since Oct. 16, 2013 — a Game 5 win over the Boston Red Sox in the ALCS. But expect a raucous crowd enjoying the kind of playoff run that comes around once in a generation, according to the Freep’s Shawn Windsor.

Well, at least for the Tigers. As the Freep’s Dave Birkett points out this morning, the Tigers’ near-miraculous recovery from a 10-game deficit on Aug. 10 parallels that of the 2022 Lions, who rose from a 1-7 start to barely miss the playoffs and planted the seeds of a squad that won a franchise-record 14 games (including the postseason) last season and is a frontrunner to make its first Super Bowl this season.

RECAP: Detroit’s lack of execution results in 5-2 loss at Carolina | Detroit Red Wings

RALEIGH, N.C. – Wrapping up the February portion of their 2025-26 regular-season schedule, the Detroit Red Wings unfortunately spent most of their Saturday night playing catch-up in an eventual 5-2 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes at Lenovo Center.

“They’re a heck of a team,” Detroit captain Dylan Larkin said. “This is a hard building to play in…They’re the class of the East, and you got to come in here at some point and get points. I just didn’t think we executed. We allowed them to be on top of us and come back in waves on Talbs.”

Goalie Cam Talbot made 30 saves in his first start since Jan. 22 for the Red Wings (34-20-6; 74 points), who moved to 11-5-2 on the road since Dec. 6. Meanwhile, turning aside 27 shots netminder Frederik Andersen helped the Hurricanes (38-15-6; 82 points) win their fifth straight game and extend their point streak to 12.

“We’re leaving without points, so that’s real disappointing,” Detroit head coach Todd McLellan said. “I thought that the game was real fast to begin with. There was a lot of pace going both ways. It was a good game for us to play in. A lot of their offensive opportunities came off of basically our tape…[Carolina] really took advantage of our mistakes.”

Detroit held steady against Carolina’s characteristically heavy, initial 10-minute push in the opening frame, but the leaders of the Metropolitan Division went up 1-0 when Taylor Hall blocked Simon Edvinsson’s shot attempt in their defensive zone and proceeded to score on a breakaway at 14:05. Then with eight seconds left in the period, while the hosts were on the man advantage, Sebastian Aho’s shot from the left face-off circle deflected off Edvinsson’s stick down low and into the back of the net to extend their lead to 2-0.

“They come out flying and shoot a lot of pucks,” Larkin said. “You can’t really pay attention to the shot clock because they fire it from everywhere, but I liked our start. It’s just that we had some times where we didn’t execute, and they score with eight seconds left. That’s a tough one, but we responded well. We won the second period.”

The Hurricanes struck again just 2:52 into that second period, as Eric Robinson jammed a wrist shot from the top of the crease to push ahead 3-0. But in a span of just 47 seconds late in the stanza, the Red Wings beat Andersen twice to put the hosts on their heels and make it a one-goal game going into the second intermission.

A teenage male is recovering and police are investigating after a shooting near a school on the east side of Detroit on Friday night.

According to police, the incident happened at 8:28 p.m. on the 3400 block of St. Aubin Street, the same area where the Detroit Edison Public School Academy’s Early College of Excellence is located.

Officials said an altercation ensued inside a building on the block and continued outside. An individual then fired shots that struck the male, whose age has yet to be disclosed, according to police. He was taken to the hospital where he was in stable condition on Saturday.

According to The Detroit News, the altercation was a fight that broke out during Detroit Edison’s boys basketball game against Detroit University Prep.

As of Saturday afternoon, police haven’t shared whether any arrests have been made.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Duluth Police Department at 313-596-5740 or Crime Stoppers of Michigan at 1-800-773-2587.
