Rick Porcello, the Tigers’ 20-year-old rookie right-hander, will start Tuesday’s one-game playoff for the American League Central title in Minnesota.

The tiebreaker became set Sunday when the Tigers and Twins each won their last scheduled game of the regular season.

Porcello will try to give the Tigers their first division title since 1987, one year before he was born.

As other Tigers enjoyed their season-saving 5-3 win over Chicago, Porcello wore his unsmiling game face. He was revving up to start the Tigers’ first-ever tiebreaker for a postseason spot.

Greinke had been pushed back.


Likewise, the Blue Jays pushed back Roy Halladay a day, avoiding a meeting with Detroit on Monday. The Tigers had to come back in the ninth to win that one.

They couldn’t avoid facing Greinke again, but the way their past series finales have gone, maybe that isn’t totally a bad thing.
