Cole Keith is having a solid rookie season but has struggled to produce RBIs in the last 12 games. The team has a road record of 29-32 this season. Keider Montero, who has a 2-5 record with a 5.62 ERA, will start for the Tigers after coming off a strong outing where he only gave up one run in six innings. Despite a recent rough patch where he gave up a total of 14 runs in three starts, Montero bounced back in his last game. With a power ranking of 19, the Tigers are ranked 24th in offense and 14th in defense, with a season record of 55-63.

San Francisco Giants poised for victory in upcoming series against struggling Detroit Tigers

The San Francisco Giants are currently on a winning streak, having secured victory in their last four games. They aim to continue this positive momentum and achieve a clean sweep in the upcoming interleague series. On the other hand, the Detroit Tigers are struggling, having lost their last three games and seven of their last ten. Furthermore, key players from the Tigers are sidelined due to injuries, impacting their lineup and overall performance. Despite Montero's somewhat inconsistent pitching record, the Giants are poised to capitalize on their offensive capabilities and secure a win in this series. With Birdsong likely to bounce back from his recent performance, the Giants are in a favorable position to secure victory, potentially by a margin greater than two runs. For improved odds, it is advisable to consider taking the Giants and the run-line at -1.5 runs +115.
