Detroit Tigers (17-17) and Texas Rangers (16-17) will play the third and final game in this series on Sunday night at Comerica Park. The Tigers will battle to win this series after recovering from a 5-4 opening-day defeat to win 5-1 on Saturday night. A win tonight will also see them bounce back from the back-to-back series losses against the Reds and the Braves on the road. They’ll be keen to extend their solid 11-3 home record this season.
Unlike the Tigers, who have struggled on the road, the Rangers have looked comfortable playing away from home. They boast an impressive 9-9 record, which they’ll be keen to improve at Comerica Park tonight. The Rangers had several opportunities to win the match on Saturday but failed to convert them. Josh Smith and Ezequiel Duran both had two hits, whereas Jake Burger homered. They’ll need to be more efficient in attack tonight to win.

Our Detroit Tigers vs Texas Rangers Prediction
The Tigers are the -125 favorites. They’re stronger in both pitching and batting, and the home-field advantage should give them an edge. The hosts have a batting average of .251, which is seventh, while the Rangers are 18th with .236. However, the starting pitchers don’t inspire much confidence in this contest, which tends to be a low-scoring affair. The Tigers will start Tyler Holton, who is 0-1 this season with an ERA of 5.54. The Rangers, on the other hand, will start Jack Leiter, who has a 1-2 record with a 5.17 ERA. He could be the weak link against a team that’s performing well at home this season. Detroit should win it, although the total runs will likely stay under 9.5.
