After the Tigers won the first game of the series 5-4, the Twins took the second, winning it 3-2. The teams will play their final regular-season game against each other on Friday, and the Tigers, with Keider Montero on the mound, are favored at -130 odds to win.
Detroit had a crucial opportunity to tie the series in the seventh inning of Tuesday's game, which they squandered when Clark, Morris, and Lee failed to drive in Malgeri, who had taken a lead-off walk and stolen a base.
That was good news for the Twins, who won Tuesday's game thanks to Kody Clemens' two-run homer. The Twins must win Wednesday's game to keep their hopes of a miraculous wild card alive, and they must take advantage of the fact that their divisional rival, the Tigers, have won only six games since mid-August.

Zebby Matthews will pitch for the Twins following a loss in his last outing against the White Sox, during which he gave up three home runs. Keider Montero will take the mound for the Tigers after struggling against the Guardians; he allowed eight hits but escaped his last start with a no-decision.
Our prediction for Tigers vs Twins is: Over 8.5.
