The Tigers enter this contest fire having won 9 of their L/10 games. Mike Maroth Motowns southpaw starting pitcher has seen his team win his L/6 starts , including the Twins defeat their last time out. The struggling Twins who have lost 7 of their L/10 overall, will send Cy Young award winner, Johan Santana, to the mound to face a Tigers team that had success against him the last time they met. Recording 3 runs and 8 hits in 6 innings of work in their April 29th meeting. Santana has seen his team lose 3 of his L/5 starts, partly due to a lack of run support, but also because of some rare concentration inconsistencies. With that being said, I say ride the momentum of the Tigers. Minnesota has failed in 6 of their L/8 opportunities as favorites. Tigers have won 5 straight as underdogs. Tigers are 6-0 in Maroths L/5 road starts. Twins have lost 4 straight at home against a lefty starter.

The play is defintely Detroit. Bet on Detroit Tigers today!!
