The Seattle Mariners are set to host the Detroit Tigers in the American League Divisional Series after the Tigers defeated the Cleveland Guardians 6-3 in their Wild Card playoff. Detroit's victory was highlighted by a four-run seventh inning, overcoming a late rally from Cleveland. The start time for Game 1 will depend on the outcome of the Yankees vs. Red Sox game, with options for either 1 pm or 5:30 pm. Mariners’ All-Star pitcher Bryan Woo's status is uncertain due to a pectoral injury, although he recently threw off the mound for the first time since September 19.

Manager Dan Wilson expressed optimism that Woo could pitch if the series extends beyond three games. Woo concluded the regular season with 15 wins and a 2. 94 ERA, ranking among the league’s top pitchers. The Mariners are expected to announce their starting pitchers tomorrow. Elsewhere, the NFL features a key matchup tonight between the Seahawks' rivals, the Rams and the 49ers.
