Detroit is 10th in runs, 11th in batting average, 12th in on-base percentage, and 13th in slugging percentage. For pitching, they are 11th in ERA. Dillon Dingler leads the team in RBIs. The Tigers will look to get more consistent play on both sides of the ball in their away games. This road skid has seen a mix of good pitching one day, but no offense to back up the good outings. The offense needs to set the tone and let the pitching do the rest.<\/p>\n

On the mound for the Twins is Joe Ryan. In two starts, he had a shutout and then gave up five runs. Ryan will try to bounce back from his last outing with fewer hits allowed and more strikeouts.<\/p>\n
In the last few games on the road, the Tigers have struggled to score and Mize is coming off a solid outing. The Twins have scored one run in each of their last two games and are going up against a tough pitcher. Ryan is also looking to have a bounce-back start.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Detroit Tigers will look to end a four-game road losing streak as they battle the Minnesota Twins…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":666705,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2386],"tags":[5,147,53,2583,60,4,594],"class_list":{"0":"post-666704","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-detroit-tigers","8":"tag-baseball","9":"tag-detroit","10":"tag-detroit-tigers","11":"tag-detroittigers","12":"tag-minnesota-twins","13":"tag-mlb","14":"tag-tigers"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@mlb\/116358812102298489","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/666704","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=666704"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/666704\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/666705"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=666704"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=666704"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=666704"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
