Los Angeles at Detroit

This will be Detroit's best chance for a win in this series as Justin Verlander takes the mound for the Tigers, who have won three of his last four starts. Verlander has by far done his best work at home where he is 5-2 with a 2.93 ERA, and the Tigers have won 12 of Verlander's last 17 home starts and 20 of his last 26 interleague starts overall. Also, Detroit is 91-42 its last 133 interleague home contests. The Dodgers counter with Kenta Maeda, who gave up four runs (three earned) in 5 1/3 innings against San Diego last Sunday. Maeda has a 4.44 ERA on the road and 5.87 in day games. Look for Detroit to salvage the final game of the series. Take the home underdog Tigers.
