Arizona took two of the three games from the series, improving their slate to 21-23 and 11-19 on the road.

The D-Backs have been hitting .224/.301/.393 with 24 runs while allowing 4.21 ERA over their past six games. The Tigers have been batting .214/.279/.333 with 19 runs while giving up a 3.33 ERA over the same stretch.
