ALDS schedule: Tigers vs. Guardians start time announced for Game 3 at Comerica Park

MLB has announced playoff game times for Game 3 and Game 4 for all four American League Division Series (ALDS), so we now have a start time for the Detroit Tigers' first postseason home game since 2014.

The ALDS schedule will see the Tigers host the Cleveland Guardians in Game 3 of the best-of-five series Wednesday at a fired-up Comerica Park in Detroit — their first home playoff game of the postseason. The Tigers swept the Houston Astros on the road in the wild-card series, winning Game 1, 3-1 and Game 2, 5-2. The Guardians had a bye, after winning the AL Central Division by 6½ games over the Tigers and Kansas City Royals.

The Tigers last hosted a postseason game Oct. 5, 2014, a brutal 2-1 loss to the Baltimore Orioles in Game 3 of the ALDS.

The ALDS vs. the Guardians starts Saturday afternoon with Game 1 (1:08 p.m., TBS) at Progressive Field in Cleveland.
