The Detroit Tigers are playing meaningful baseball in October this fall for the first time in 10 years and the fanbase could not be more excited about the next step in the Motor City Kitties’ magical season.

The first stop on the way to the World Series (fingers crossed) is in Houston, where the Astros will welcome their former manager’s club at Minute Maid Park for a best-of-three American League Wild Card series. As the higher seed, the ‘Stros will host all three matchups in consecutive days starting on Tuesday.

Houston took the season series, 4-2, winning two of three in Detroit back in May before doing the same once again at home in June.
