The current betting odds have the Tigers listed as an underdog in this game. The Tigers have not been playing well recently but they are at home here and they have been a much better team there this season. They have Hutchison starting here and he has not been that bad this season, allowing very few runs in his last few starts. The Guardians have been playing well recently but their offense has not been that good and they have been winning their games with good pitching. They have Civale starting here though and he has not been very good this season as he has been allowing a lot of runs in his starts. He is also coming off of an injury making his first start here and he will likely not be 100% in this game coming off that injury. This is a good spot for the Tigers to steal a game at home here in this series. The best way to place a bet here is on the Tigers to win this game.

"Regardless of the last couple days, we needed to remind ourselves that we're a good team and we want to make the playoffs. Today, I made better decisions and decided if I'm going to get beat, I was going to get beat on my best pitches." - Cal Quantrill after their win against the Astros on Saturday.

 

 

"It's two outs and a run on first, and you feel like you are still in command of everything. Even after a soft double, you still have control — you just need to get the next guy out. Soto just lost his command of everything and it turned into an ugly ending." - A.J. Hinch after his team’s loss against the Rays on Sunday.
