Citing a chance of inclement weather, Major League Baseball moved the start time of Saturday’s decisive Game 5 of the American League Division Series between Detroit and Cleveland from 8:08 p.m. ET to 1:08 p.m ET.
The change was announced Friday as the Tigers were going through a workout at Progressive Field.

Cleveland evened the back-and-forth series by rallying to win Game 4 on Thursday night. Pinch-hitter David Fry‘s two-run homer in the seventh inning helped the AL Central champions avoid elimination.

While the seven-hour switch could be inconvenient for some, it will allow Ohio State and Guardians fans from having to switch between flipping their TVs from the baseball broadcast to the No. 2-ranked Buckeyes game at No. 3 Oregon, which starts at 7:30 p.m. ET.
