Yankees vs. Tigers, 2012 ALCS Game 3: Game time, TV schedule, starting pitchers and more

The New York Yankees will look to get back on track Tuesday night, as they travel to Detroit to take on the Tigers. The Yankees lost the first two games of the American League Championship Series, and many are blaming the offense which has averaged just 2.8 runs per game this postseason. Despite their struggles, manager Joe Girardi has often kept Alex Rodriguez, Curtis Granderson and Nick Swisher in the lineup.

First pitch from Comerica Park in Detroit is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET.

TV

TBS will broadcast the ALCS this October. Ernie Johnson will handle the play-by-play duties. John Smoltz and Ron Darling serve as the analysts, while Craig Sager reports from the field.
