Rain Delay Pauses ALDS Game 3 in Detroit as Mariners-Tigers Await New Start Time

Officials have not set a new start time, with Josh Naylor active and Jack Flaherty and Logan Gilbert still listed as the probable starters.

Overview

  • Less than an hour before the scheduled 4:08 p.m. ET first pitch, the Tigers announced a weather delay with no revised start time.
  • Forecasts from The Weather Channel called for a 90% chance of rain, leading to a tarp-covered field and canceled batting practice.
  • Detroit still lists Jack Flaherty to face Seattle’s Logan Gilbert, though both clubs acknowledged the weather could force late pitching adjustments.
  • Mariners first baseman Josh Naylor returned and is starting at first base, batting fifth, after being away for his wife’s expected childbirth.
  • The series is tied 1-1 after two 3-2 games, Detroit is playing its first home game in 16 days, and the broadcast is on FS1.
