Guardians

Cleveland is 13-2 (.867) against the Tigers this season, the best record within any MLB divisional series this season. The Indians can clinch the AL Central with one win in this four-game series; they last won the division in 2007.

Cleveland dropped the final two games of a three-game set at home with the White Sox over the weekend. Going back to August 29, the Indians are 2-5 against the White Sox and 15-4 against all other teams.

Detroit lost 12-9 at home to the Royals yesterday, with the teams combining for 36 hits (19 for Royals, 17 for Tigers). Over their last seven games, the Tigers are averaging 7.3 runs per contest and batting .304 as a team.

Cameron Maybin tied a career high with four hits yesterday versus the Royals (4-for-6), and is batting .519 over his last six games (14-for-27). Maybin is hitting .327 for the season after never finishing a previous season (minimum 100 PA) with a batting average higher than .267.

Jose Ramirez ranks second in the American League with 45 doubles (David Ortiz, Bos -- 48). He's one of three AL players with at least 40 doubles and 20 steals this year, along with Jose Altuve (Astros) and Mookie Betts (Red Sox).

Corey Kluber is the only pitcher ranking in the Top 5 of the AL in wins (18, third), strikeouts (224, third), and ERA (3.11, fourth). His 18-9 record is identical to his final 2014 record, when he won the AL Cy Young Award.

Tigers

DETROIT -- What Cleveland Indians manager Terry Francona calls an "inconvenience" could be part of a major travel nightmare for the Detroit Tigers.
Detroit's game with Cleveland on Thursday was called off after more than six inches of rain fell on Comerica Park in less than 24 hours.

Rainout a minor inconvenience for Indians, nightmare for Tigers

DETROIT (AP)  For a brief moment, it appeared there might be baseball at Comerica Park - when the tarp came off, and both managers walked around the field with umpires.
Turned out the situation was a lot less promising than it seemed.
