The Detroit Tigers and the Tampa Bay Rays square off for the last time this season on Thursday at Comerica Park. The Tigers (84-74) have won eight of their last 10 games to surge past the Minnesota Twins (82-76) to occupy the No.3 and last wild card spot in the American League. Detroit is running like a well-oiled machine in their last 10 games, scoring 4.0 runs on a .232 batting average and pitching a 3.07 ERA. With a 78-80 record, the Rays will miss the playoffs this season but they can still go above .500 if they win their remaining games. They are 5-5 in their last 10 games and had won four consecutive games before taking two consecutive losses at the hands of the Tigers. Tampa Bay has batted .214 with 2.3 runs per game and pitched a rock solid 2.83 ERA in their last 10 outings.
