In today’s first playoff game, the Detroit Tigers won 3-0, behind another strong pitching performance by Kenny Rogers, to take a 3-zip series lead. Kenny Rogers has now not given up an earned run in two playoff starts.
As history dictates, we know that there is only one MLB team that has ever come back from a 3-0 deficit. And you ask who that may be? It is of course the 2004 World Series Champions, Boston Red Sox, who came back to defeat the Yankees after falling behind 3 games in the series.
After watching the first three games of the ALCS, I don’t think theres a better team in baseball right now than the Detroit Tigers. Everything seems to be clicking right for them, their starting and relief pitching, their hitting and defense. You name it, it’s going right for the Tigers. It looks as though I may not get the total games right for this series as far as my prediction goes, but there’s a real good chance I will at least get the team right.
