Both on two-game losing skid, the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Detroit Tigers begin their three-game series on Tuesday at Comerica Park.
The Pirates had lost three out of four games in the just-concluded series with the Chicago Cubs, as lackluster offense continued to keep this team from realizing their full potential. Over the last five games, Pittsburgh has pitched an outstanding 2.03 ERA and .193 OBA. However, the Pirates have only scored 2.2 runs per game while batting .171 also in this stretch.
The Tigers are also 2-3 in their last 5 games, including two consecutive losses to the Cincinnati Reds. Detroit, still No.1 in the AL Central with a 46-27 record, has given up a 6.75 ERA in their last five games, which is uncharacteristic for a team that has sported a 3.41 ERA all season.

Our Pittsburgh Pirates vs Detroit Tigers Prediction
Why should you pick the Pirates to win? (Win $175 on a $100 Bet) – Bailey Falter has guided the Pirates to a win in 4 of his last 5 starts. In his last mound appearance against the Miami Marlins, Falter surrendered one earned run over 5.1 innings to lower his ERA in the last five games to 2.25. The Tigers will send starter Casey Mize to the mound on Tuesday. Mize boasts an ERA of 3.33 over his last 5 starts, and I expect him to pitch strongly against the Pirates. The problem begins for the Tigers once Mize finishes with his duty and the bullpen takes over the mound. Detroit’s reserves have given up an average of 9.24 runs/9 innings over the last 5 games, which cost them a couple of matches against Cincinnati.
Our betting prediction for the Detroit Tigers vs. the Pittsburgh Pirates: the Pirates will win.
