The Texas Rangers have lost seven straight games, putting them seven games below .500 for the first time in six years. They will certainly have an opportunity to shine in this one as they do business with Tigers' starter Ricky Porcello. Porcello has worse numbers vs. Texas than any other team, as he has yet to solve the Rangers' attack. He has a 7.41 ERA against them in seven career starts, allowing a Ruthian .377 batting average gainst him. Nick Martinez is off a great outing, allowing just 2 runs on 3 hits in 7 strong innings vs. the hard-hitting Angels. He also beat Porcello earlier in the season, where he allowed just 2 runs on 3 hits over 7 frames. The Tigers are just 5-11 in their last 16 played in Texas. Texas snaps their losing streak.
