Maybe now teams will realize that you can't win with Tommy Kahnle in the playoffs.

AJ Hinch blew it taking Tarik Skubal out after 6 at under 100 pitches. Your season is on the line, go batter to batter with him. Very fitting that the Tigers bullpen immediately surrendered the lead in the 7th. Yes, the Tigers offense was weak. But their manager screwed them.

Finally, Jorge Polanco walks it off. The Seattle Mariners are going to the American League Championship Series for the first time in 24 years.

Has Jack Flaherty always talked to himself like this? I don't remember him doing that with the Dodgers. Maybe he wasn't here long enough to notice it.

Whatever he said to himself, it clearly worked.

How did Jack Flaherty get out of that? He couldn't throw a strike to save his life. Unbelievable. Not sure any of these teams deserve to win.

I know the Tigers need someone to pitch. But Jack Flaherty? Oh boy.

Wow! Keider Montero tried to hand the Mariners the game, and they whiffed.

On to the 13th inning.

That's a horrible call. The ball clearly hit the bat before any body parts.

That's a foul ball. A very painful foul ball for Victor Robles.

That might've been Detroit's last best chance.

Cal Raleigh didn't allow a single passed ball during the regular season. Horrible time to allow his first passed ball of the season.

Mariners had the winning run at 2nd with no out, and the top of their lineup coming up.

He didn't even get to 3rd base.

Big missed opportunity for Seattle.

Extra innings to decide Game 5 of the ALDS. This is incredible drama.

Who's going to be the hero in Seattle?

Leo Rivas in his first playoff AB rips a base hit to score Jorge Polanco. Mariners tie it at 2.

100%. That likely forced Wilson's hand.

No way would I take Tarik Skubal out. I get his pitch count was getting up there, but this is a do or die game. You have to ride him as long as possible. Go batter to batter.

I can't blame Dan Wilson for taking out George Kirby. Kerry Carpenter got him in Game 1. Gabe Speier has been electric all season, and that was the correct matchup. Speier just made a bad pitch. Sometimes, that just happens in baseball.

Kerry Carpenter does it again in Seattle! Two run shot. Tigers take a 2-1 lead.

What a wonderful life Sister Jean lived.

RIP Sister Jean Dolores Schmidt

The Padres might have been eliminated, but they're still taking L's in the Postseason.

You can't let Josh Naylor steal a base. The Tigers do, and the Mariners get a run out of it. 1-0 Seattle.

Going with the Tigers. Felt the Mariners missed an opportunity to put Detroit away. Think the pressure and Tarik Skubal will get to them.

Don't think you'll see Brock Purdy for another 2 weeks at least. Maybe even longer. Need to get that toe right.

It's going to be fascinating to see where Munetaka Murakami goes. Unless the Dodgers move on from Max Muncy, I don't think he's coming here.

Lol it'll be worth it. 😂

In 2008 and 2009.

100%. Made no sense to put him on.

So lost in the shuffle of all the madness at the Ravine, we found the reason why Tyler Glasnow was removed: He apparently was cramping up. So Dave Roberts took him out. It seemed odd to remove him when he was doing so well. But if he's having cramps out there, it makes sense.
