CLEVELAND, Ohio – What a difference two hours makes.

The time for the Detroit Tigers-Cleveland Guardians Game 3 was shifted from 1:08 p.m. to 3:08 p.m. based on the number of remaining - deciding - Game 3s. When the Los Angeles Dodgers eliminated Cincinnati late Wednesday, the Guardians were moved to the mid-afternoon spot, as cleveland.com’s Joe Noga reported .

That decision translated to brisk business in bars near the ballpark, unlike for Game 2 on Wednesday, when business slowed to a morose pace. But Thursday, bars were packed with Guardians fans from East 4th Street to the large patio for The Clevelander and AJ Rocco’s on Huron Road.

The difference could be felt in the pregaming vibe, but it didn’t translate to the field as the Guardians lost, 6-3.
