Keider Montero needed just six pitches to retire the top of the Guardians’ lineup to open Game 3 of the AL Division Series, the first postseason game at Comerica Park in a decade. As Montero descended the steps into the dugout, Hinch bypassed the usual end-of-outing handshake or keep-it-up fist bump and instead put his arm around Montero for a few words.
