Rangers vs Tigers Prediction

The Rangers won six of the previous ten H2H encounters, including the last three, while this season, Texas leads the series 3-1. I know that the Rangers are not an Over team, but in this case, I am going with Over, mainly because of the starting pitchers. Kumar Rocker allowed multiple runs in eight of his last nine games, and I don’t trust him at the moment, so I am sure the Tigers will get to him early on after scoring zero runs last night. Keider Montero, on the other hand, is in better form this year, but he will likely surrender two or three runs in the opening five innings.
