Detroit Tigers: Looking for a commanding ALCS lead

After taking the first two games of the 2012 ALCS in the Bronx, the Tigers head home looking for a commanding 3-0 series lead tonight. There’s a lot to like about Detroit and it starts with their ace taking to the bump. RHP Justin Verlander gets the call for the Cats tonight and that’s bad news for the Evil Empire. The Vaporizer has been money for us all season and we like him again tonight.

New York Yankees: In a 0-2 series hole and without their Captain

Minus their Captain, and down 2-0 in the 2012 ALCS, the Bronx Bombers are looking more like the Bronx Senior Citizens as they limp into Detroit. After batting a combined two for 18 in Game 2, the Yankees first five hitters need to be better if New York is going to mount a series comeback. The Yankees struck out 14 times back on August 6, 2012, versus the Vaporizer in Detroit.
