The Texas Rangers, whose slumping batting lineup has led to a losing streak, will be sending José Ureña (1 win, 5 losses, 3.74 ERA) to the mound to try for his second win of the season. In his June 1 away game in Miami, Ureña suffered a loss after a poor performance of 4 runs in 2.1 innings. Ureña has been struggling in his recent away games. However, he is a pitcher who performs well at home and had a good outing of 4.2 innings with 1 run allowed in an away game against Detroit this season, which is a point of hope for this game. In the previous game, Texas's lineup was nearly shut down by Flaherty’s pitching and managed to score only 1 run in the bottom of the ninth inning. They have been unable to carry their away game momentum to their home games. If the table setters don’t pick up their rhythm, the team's scoring ability continues to suffer. Texas’s bullpen, which managed to hold the previous game to 4 innings with 2 hits and no runs allowed, often performs well when the team is losing.
The Detroit Tigers, who have succeeded in achieving three consecutive wins thanks to stellar pitching, will have Kenta Maeda (2 wins, 2 losses, 6.25 ERA) taking the mound to try for his third win of the season. In his June 1 away game in Boston, Maeda suffered a loss after a disappointing performance of 5 runs in 4.2 innings. Maeda has shown two contrasting faces this season, with 11 innings of 1 run allowed at home and 12 runs in 6.2 innings allowed away. In last year’s away game against Texas, Maeda recorded 5 innings with 9 hits and 3 runs, so it would be considered a success if he can achieve similar results in this game. Despite winning their previous game, Detroit’s lineup only managed to score 3 runs with two home runs, indicating a decline in batting form. Riley Green, who has hit 11 home runs so far, is successfully adapting to his new batting style. The bullpen, which allowed 1 run in the bottom of the ninth but managed to hold on, appears stable in using its winning combination for this game.
Texas's lineup has recently struggled against fastball pitchers, but they should be able to rebound against Maeda. Considering Detroit’s strong performance against high-speed sinkers, a slugfest is likely. However, Texas’s bullpen will be fully mobilized, and this will likely lead to a victory. The Texas Rangers, with the home-field advantage, are closer to winning this game.
Predicted score: 6-4, Texas win
Handicap: Texas win
Over/Under: Over
