The MLB schedule will bring a huge number of matches to be disputed next Saturday, August 31st, and one of the most attractive corresponds to the clash between Detroit Tigers and Boston Red Sox to be played at 04:10 pm Central Time. It’s also important to remark that this will be the second game of the series between them, so there will be a great pressure to look up for the victory.
On the one hand, Detroit Tigers is 8.5 games behind Cleveland Guardians in the AL Central Division, so the only remaining way for them to qualify for the playoffs is reaching the Wild Cards Spots. For this purpose, Riley Green has cooperated with 66 scored runs and 19 home runs throughout the season. In addition, Tarik Skubal is expected to be the opener pitcher for this game, being necessary to remark that he has completed 193 strikeouts so far this season.
On the other hand, Boston Red Sox are 9.0 games behind New York Yankees in the AL East Division but being only 3.5 games behind the Wild Card spots force them to look up for the victory in these series. For this regard, Jarren Durran must carry on inspired after scoring 94 runs this season and remaining as the hit leader of the Red Sox with 162 hits. On the pitching side, Nick Pivetta will most likely be the pitcher, player that has completed 135 strikeouts in 111 innings played.
