The Detroit Tigers will go for a three-game sweep of the Boston Red Sox on Wednesday at Comerica Park.
The Tigers are still the top cats in the American League Central with a 28-15 record. They have won 3 of their last 5 games, including back-to-back victories over the Red Sox. In these wins, Detroit has showcased its offensive might, scoring 14 runs in Game 1 and 10 runs in Game 2. The Tigers parade top-5 batting numbers this season, averaging .261 (5th) with 238 total runs (3rd).
Tuesday’s 9-10 heartbreaker dealt the Red Sox their third loss in their last five games. Boston sits in second in the AL East with a 20-20 record, but their recent setbacks have allowed their rival and current division pace-setter, New York Yankees, to build a 3-game lead on them. Boston, who is pitching a 3.94 ERA, will need to take their play a notch higher, particularly on the mound, after surrendering 24 runs in just two games.

Our Boston Red Sox vs Detroit Tigers Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Tarik Skubal helps Tigers sweep series with the Red Sox
Reasons to bet on the Tigers at -1.5 runs: Detroit’s top-flight ace Tarik Skubal (1.16 ERA) is starting on Wednesday, looking to torment Boston anew. Skubal is coming off a sensational outing vs. the Rangers on May 9, in which he allowed a single run and struck out 12 over 7 innings in a 2-1 win. The Tigers are scoring 6.1 runs per game over their last 5 games, giving Skubal ample run support to finish off the Red Sox early.
Reasons NOT to bet the Red Sox at +1.5 Runs: I can’t see any scenario where the Red Sox managed to keep the score close after 9 innings. The Red Sox are averaging a decent 4.5 runs per game over their last 5 but they are posting a 4.20 ERA on the road this season, which makes them susceptible against a high-powered Tigers offense.
Our betting prediction for the Detroit Tigers vs. Boston Red Sox: Tigers -1.5 Runs.
