What a mismatch, Justin Verlander (1.83 ERA) against Philip Humber (0-6, 7.58 ERA). Just like yesterday when the Tigers won 17-2 with 21 hits. Miguel Cabrera hit two home runs, finished 4-for-4, and tied a career high with six RBI against this awful Houston team. Detroit is third in baseball in runs scored and second in OBP, while the last place Astros are No. 24 in on-base percentage. Detroit has a winning record on the road, while the Astros are 4-11 at home. The Tigers are 8-1 in their last nine overall and 50-21 in Verlander's last 71 starts. The Astros are 15-37 in their last 52 home games and starter Humber has allowed 59 base runners in 29+ innings! Detroit likes facing him too, with a 1-2 record and a 6.00 ERA against the Tigers. Lay it, and go with the Tigers.
