BOX SCORE

The Tigers shocked the New York Yankees, rallying from 3 runs down in the top of the 9th, eventually winning the game in the 12th, to grab a commanding 3 games to none lead in the best of seven American League Championship Series.

The Tigers jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the 3rd, on Kyle Dutcher's 4th home run of the post season. But the Yankees came right back with 2 in the bottom of the 3rd, on an Aaron Judge 2 run home run, his first of the post season.

Jameson Taillon kept the Tigers in check through 6 innings, allowing just the one run on 4 hits, striking out 7. Jonathan Loaisiga and Chad Green pitched a scoreless inning each, getting the game to the 9th inning. The Yankees had picked up single runs in the 4th and 5th innings, to take a 4-1 lead into the 9th.

Thats when the fun began.

Aroldis Chapman came on in the 9th to try to protect a 4-1 led. Javier Baez led off the 9th with a home run to left, cutting the Yankee lead to 4-2. Juan Soto then followed with a home run to right, cutting the lead to 4-3. Spencer Torkelson then hit a home run to left, tying the game at 4. Clay Holmes would then replace Chapman, and got the Yankees out of the inning with the score tied.

Neither team scored in the 10th or 11th. In the 12th, Jonathan Schoop singled, then Jeimer Candelario homered to center, scoring Schoop, giving the Tigers a 6-4 lead. Javier Baez was hit by a pitch, and scored on a double by Juan Soto, putting the Tigers up 7-4. Gregory Soto allowed a leadoff single in the bottom of the 12th, but retired the next 3 Yankees in order to seal the game, and give the Tigers a three games to none lead in the series.

Game 4 will be Wednesday night in New York. Eduardo Rodriguez starts for Detroit. The Scheduled starter for the Yankees is Jordan Montgomery, though there is speculation that Gerrit Cole could come back on short rest to start the game.

NLCS UPDATE
The Dodgers beat the Mets on Tuesday 5-4, to even that series up at 2 games apiece. Game 5 will be Wednesday night in Los Angeles, with Max Scherzer opposing Clayton Kershaw.
