WS GM 3: 10/27/12 - DET (0-2) VS SF (2-0) - 8:07 p.m. ET

Tigers: RHP Anibal Sanchez (1-1, 1.35 ERA)

Sanchez needs no introduction to the NL, having spent his entire career in the Senior Circuit before joining the Tigers in late July. He's been pretty good lately against the AL, too, blanking the Yankees for seven innings in Game 2 of the ALCS.




Giants: RHP Ryan Vogelsong (2-0, 1.42 ERA)

Vogelsong has been dynamic this postseason, sporting a 1.42 ERA in three starts, but he saved his best for Game 6 of the NLCS. The righty tossed seven innings of one-run ball and struck out a career-high nine and heads into the World Series on fire.






INJURY UPDATE:

• C Victor Martinez (left knee surgery, 60-day disabled list on March 12).
• OF Ryan Raburn (right quadriceps strain, 15-day DL on September 11).
• LHP Daniel Schlereth (left shoulder tendinitis, 60-day DL on April 21).
