Detroit at Texas

Texas isn't playing well down the stretch, on a 1-3 run, even losing two nights ago to this Detroit team as -140 chalk. Texas is a small park, great for offenses, and a talented Tigers attack is in town, ranked #12 in runs scored, second in on-base percentage and fifth in slugging. The Tigers are 5-2 against a starter with a WHIP greater than 1.30. They are also 4-1 on the road vs. a right-handed starter and face struggling righty Yovani Gallardo. Gallardo is winless in his last three outings and hasn't worked longer than 5 1/3 innings during a stretch of six starts. He has a 6.23 ERA and has given up 23 hits in 14 innings over his last three starts. The Rangers are 3-7 when Gallardo faces a team with a losing record, including 0-4 at home. Detroit likes this park at 4-1 the last five in Texas. Back the road team Detroit.
