BOSTON -- The Detroit Tigers are going back to Cleveland.

The Tigers lost to the Boston Red Sox 4-3 in the regular-season finale on Sunday afternoon at Fenway Park.

Detroit finished the season 87-74, one win better than last year, and will enter the postseason as the third Wild Card and No. 6 seed for the second straight year.

The Tigers will play at AL Central Division champion Cleveland on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, if necessary. The winner of the best-of-three series advances to play second-seeded Seattle in the AL Division Series.

With Detroit’s loss, the Guardians clinched the Central regardless of the outcome of their game against Texas on Sunday. Their rally to overtake the Tigers from a 15.5-game deficit is the largest comeback to win a division in MLB history.
