In their previous encounter on June 13th against the Washington Nationals, the Tigers displayed an offensive masterclass, securing a 7-2 victory that was nothing short of spectacular. With 10 hits leading to 7 runs, their batting lineup proved lethal. Notably, their ability to capitalize on scoring opportunities was evident as they hit .400 with runners in scoring position (RISP), converting those chances into crucial runs. This kind of clutch hitting will be essential as they face off against the White Sox.


The bullpen and starting pitching have been equally impressive for the Tigers. The bullpen's ERA stood at a commendable 3.00 from that game, showcasing their ability to shut down opposing hitters effectively in late innings. Moreover, Shelby Miller emerged victorious from that contest, demonstrating resilience and skill which will be vital in maintaining momentum going into this matchup.
