MLB has moved the start time of the decisive Game 5 in the American League Division Series between the Detroit Tigers and Cleveland Guardians from 8:08 p.m. ET to 1:08 p.m. ET due to potential inclement weather.
This announcement came on Friday as the Tigers practiced at Progressive Field, preparing for the critical matchup.
Cleveland managed to tie the series in a thrilling Game 4 on Thursday night, with pinch-hitter David Fry hitting a two-run homer in the seventh inning to keep their postseason hopes alive.
While the seven-hour shift may pose challenges for some fans, it offers a unique opportunity for supporters of both the Guardians and Ohio State. They can enjoy the baseball game before switching their focus to the highly anticipated college football matchup featuring the No. 2-ranked Buckeyes against No. 3 Oregon, kicking off at 7:30 p.m. ET.
