Game Insights
The Tigers are turning to right-handed veteran pitcher Jack Flaherty for this matchup. During the regular season, Flaherty faced the Mariners once, allowing two earned runs over five innings. Conversely, Logan Gilbert will pitch for the Mariners, with a promising 2.61 ERA in his previous two starts against Detroit in 2025.
This game is a critical moment for both teams. If the Tigers win, they will have the opportunity to clinch the series at home in Game 4 on Wednesday. However, a loss would force them into a must-win situation in Game 4 to avoid a decisive Game 5 in Seattle on Friday.
