On average across these games, he maintained a strong presence at the plate which could spell trouble for the Tigers' pitchers.

Predictions and Insights


As we dissect these performances further, it becomes apparent that both Santander and Carpenter could play pivotal roles in their respective teams' strategies. However, considering Santander's consistent ability to drive in runs and get on base over multiple games against various opponents, he might just have an outsized impact on whether or not the Orioles can secure a win against the Tigers.


The Orioles have shown resilience and adaptability in their recent outings, with players like Santander stepping up when needed most. Their depth will be tested against a Tigers team that has its own set of dynamic players ready to make their mark.
