Result: Win
This is a 10* RED DRAGON on the Detroit Tigers.

We had a big play on the Tigers in their extra-inning 2-1 win in the opener of this inter-league series and we think the home side will find a way to get the job done here as well. The visitors hand the ball to Sal Romano (6-8, 5.04 ERA) who gave up two runs off seven hits and a walk over six innings while striking out five in a victory over St. Louis on Wednesday. Starts like that have been few and far between for Romano this year though, especially on the road where he's only 1-4 with a 5.98 ERA. The home side counters with Mike Fiers (7-6, 3.54) who gave up seven hits and three walks while striking out six over seven shutout innings in a win over the hard-hitting Red Sox on Saturday. Fiers has now posted five straight quality efforts, a stretch in which he's twirled a 1.62 ERA with 24 strikeouts and six walks over 33.1 innings. Fiers has been far from perfect and his peripherals suggest that this streak of hotness isn't going to last forever, but note that he's been fantastic at home this year overall by going 5-2 with a 2.85 ERA thus far. We're banking on Fiers doing enough to get the better of his inconsistent counterpart. Play on the TIGERS.
