Detroit goes for two wins in a row against the Pirates after Nicholas Castellanos scored the winning run on what should have been a double play on Tuesday night as the Tigers escaped with a 5-4 victory. Pittsburgh now has lost nine of its last 11 games and 20-of-28 and shouldn't be a big favorite against anyone. The Pirates are 2-8 their last 10 versus right-handed starters and 4-11 their last 15 home games. Jordan Zimmermann comes off the injury list and will make his first start since April 25. Likewise, Trevor Williams (right side strain) also will be making his first appearance since May 16. Williams has allowed 10 runs (nine earned) on 19 hits in 19 innings pitched at home this season and the Pirates are only 13-19 at PNC Park. Play the Tigers.
