The Tigers will send right-hander Max Scherzer to the mound for Saturday's Game 6 against the Rangers.
Detroit has to win the game in order to force a seventh game against Texas.
"I'm really not nervous about the situation at all. It's the opportunity of a lifetime," Scherzer said.
"It's the most exciting challenge I've ever had to face. The atmosphere in that [Rangers] Ballpark is awesome, electric. We're all chomping at the bits to play Game 6."
Tigers manager Jim Leyland said, "I'm proud of the way we set up our pitching. We couldn't ask for anything more."
