The most important matchup in Tuesday’s American League Division Series Game 3 is going to happen in the top of the first inning, just three batters into the game, when Vladimir Guerrero Jr. steps into the box against Yankees starter Carlos Rodón.

“Right now, the report is that we’re going to be just fine,” Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said. “I mean, I think there could be a little bit of rain, but things are looking more promising than they were even 24 hours ago.” The field remained covered as of 1:45 p.m., though pitchers were able to do their regular work on the outfield grass.

Jack Flaherty takes the mound for the Tigers and while he was better at home this season, he wasn't very impressive anywhere. The Mariners saw him in Detroit on July 13 and scored eight runs that game. Only two were against Flaherty in five innings, but keep in mind they've seen a lot of the Tigers' lackluster bullpen so far this series.
