The series is currently tied 2-2, so the winner of this game will advance to the next round of the postseason.

The Guardians won Game 4 to keep their season alive by defeating Detroit 5-4. Remarkably, Cleveland overcame a one-run deficit to secure the victory. The Guardians took the lead in the seventh inning when their pinch-hitter David Fry hit a two-run home run. He also hit an RBI in the ninth inning that gave Cleveland a two-run lead.

Detroit’s pitching staff will look to bounce back with a better performance in Game 5 as they allowed 11 hits in their last game. Notably, Detroit has already shut out Cleveland twice in this series, resulting in 3-0 victories.

Detroit’s offense played decently last game as seven different players scored. However, Matt Vierling started 0-5 for Detroit, so he will need to improve his performance tonight.
