Rogers' 3-Game MLB SWEEPER PASS (7-2, 78% RUN w/ 3-GM MLB!)
(MLB) Oakland vs. Detroit,
Total: 8.00 | 100.00 Over
Result: Loss
8* play on the UNDER A's/Tigers.

After splitting the first two games of a home series versus Oakland, the Tigers send ace Justin Verlander to mound in the rubber match on Wednesday. Sonny Gray will go for the A's, and with a pair of aces on the mound, we should be in for a pitcher's duel.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Pitching - Justin Verlander is coming off a stellar performance in a losing effort versus Cleveland, striking out 10 while giving up a pair of runs on four hits in seven innings. He's 2-1 with a 3.18 ERA in his last three starts versus Oakland.

2. Batter vs. Pitcher - The Tigers are batting just .180 with 13 strikeouts over a combined 50 at bats versus Gray.

3. X-Factor - These two teams have failed to reach the total in six of the last eight meetings, and the under is 11-5 in Verlander's last 16 starts versus Oakland.

Selection: This is a play on the Athletics@Tigers to go UNDER the total (8*)
