The Athletics will try to end a three-game skid when they play the Detroit Tigers in Game 2 of a three-game series today. Fans can follow the action once the game gets underway at Comerica Park in Detroit, MI, at 6:40 p.m. EST.
It will not be easy, of course, against a Tigers team that beat them yesterday 11-4 and owns the best record in Major League Baseball (50-30). The A’s took an early 4-2 lead over the Tigers in Tuesday’s contest, but the Detroit offense exploded for five runs in the third inning and never looked back. For Game 2, the Athletics are scheduled to start Jacob Lopez. He’s got a 1-4 record in ten appearances (six starts), with a 4.25 ERA and 1.44 WHIP. However, he has really struggled away from home, appearing in five games (three starts) and going 1-2 with a 6.92 ERA and a .333 OBA. But he has only given up one run in his last three starts. Detroit is set to start Jack Flaherty. Flaherty is 5-8 in 15 starts with a 4.83 ERA and 1.21 WHIP. He gave up 15 earned runs in his last two starts (seven combined innings).

Our Athletics vs Detroit Tigers Prediction
Here we have a decent A’s team facing off against the team with the best record in baseball. However, both teams have starting pitchers who have struggled this season. As for who will win, I’d lean towards the A’s because of how poorly Flaherty pitched in his last two outings. But the A’s starter isn’t exactly reliable either. The better bet for this game, with these two pitchers on the mound, is the TOTAL.
Our A's vs. Tigers Pick: OVER 8.5
