Detroit at Atlanta

The Tigers have reeled off six straight wins and have out-scored opponents 46-18 in that stretch. Tiger pitching has allowed just 6 runs in their last 4 games. Andrew Miller gets the start for the Tigers, as Detroit has won 2 of his 3 starts, while he has pitched to an ERA in the mid 3's. It is no secret that the best way to beat the Braves is to throw a LHP at them. They have seen LHP more than any team by far, as this will mark the 34th time a LHP has started against the Braves. They have faired poorly as they have a losing mark at 14-19. That is just the beginning of their problems. The Braves offense has been in a horrific slump. They finally scored a run yesterday on a HR, but have now been out-scored 22-1 over their last 4, and the offense has not scored in our games on a base hit! Chuck James gets the ball in an attempt to stop the bleeding as the Braves have now lost four straight and have a losing record at home. The Tigers have feasted on LHP, as they have the best record in baseball against them at 15-6. Tigers get the sweep.
