Tigers and Indians to Play Three-Game Series in Detroit
When this MLB season began, not many had high hopes for the Cleveland Indians. But a strong first two months saw them with a 32-20 record and five games up on Detroit.
Since then, they’ve fallen back to earth and Detroit has taken over the lead in the AL Central by less than a handful of games. The Bodog Sportsbook has the Tigers with 15/1 odds of winning the World Series and the Indians set at 50/1 odds.
The Indians hope to get back into first as they visit Detroit for a three-game series starting on Friday night.
Max Scherzer and his 12-7 record take on Josh Tomlin’s 12-5 mark in game one on Friday night. Saturday’s likely matchup will see the newest Tiger Doug Fister against David Huff, who has a 0.51 ERA in 17.2 innings. Sunday features Rick Porcello against Ubaldo Jimenez, who the Indians traded four prospects to Colorado to get him at the trade deadline.
The Indians outscored the Tigers 16-9 in taking two out of three games from Detroit in a series last week in Cleveland.
The Tigers have had trouble in the last two weeks, losing as many games as they’ve been winning, but the Indians haven’t been able to take advantage. Both teams will have to watch out for the White Sox, who are surging as one of the hottest teams in baseball.
