After winning the series against the Yankees in Detroit, the Tigers took on Game 1 of their weekend series against the Twins at Target Field. In 28 at-bats this season, Javier Báez is batting .321 and drove in an RBI double that would have been the go-ahead run in a 7-6 victory.
For the Tigers, there were no home runs in Friday's game, while for the Twins, Buxton went 2-for-4, scored three runs, and hit a home run.
In sportsbooks, the Twins are starting to become one of the least lucrative teams to bet on, so betting against them has proven positive this season. A $100 bet on the ML for each Twins game would have resulted in a negative balance of -$702, while the feisty Tigers, with their 8-5 record, would have produced a return of $210.
The Game 2 starters are Jackson Jobe and Chris Paddack, both of whom have ERAs above 5.00 to start the season. Padack was thrashed by the White Sox in his 2025 debut, as they allowed 9 ERs on 3.1 pitches, and while he allowed fewer, the Astros also gave him 3 ERs on April 6.
