Playoff baseball game thread

Good morning A’s fans! No playoffs for our Green & Gold this year but that doesn’t mean the rest of the baseball world stops turning. We got a full slate of playoff baseball today as the postseason officially kicks off with the Wild Card round and four games today. Remember, it’s a best-of-three series so every win and loss is absolutely critical.

Things start with the Detroit Tigers versus the Houston Astros. Having won the AL West the Astros get to host but they’ll be without future Hall-of-Famer Justin Verlander, who was left off the roster released this morning.
