Detroit Tigers

In a compelling Interleague matchup, the Detroit Tigers host the San Francisco Giants at Comerica Park on May 27, 2025. This game is particularly significant as the Tigers sit at 35-20, boasting a strong season, while the Giants hold a respectable 31-23 record. Both teams are looking to build momentum after the Tigers triumphed over the Giants 3-1 in yesterday’s game, showcasing their strong pitching and offensive capabilities.

The Tigers are projected to start Jack Flaherty, who has struggled with a 2-6 record this season despite a decent ERA of 4.39. His recent performance saw him pitching 7 innings with 3 earned runs, 8 strikeouts, and only 3 hits in his last start. However, he faces a tough challenge against Logan Webb, who comes in with a 5-4 record and an impressive 2.67 ERA, ranking him as the 6th best starting pitcher in MLB. Webb’s ability to generate strikeouts (26.9 K%) could be crucial against a Tigers offense that ranks 5th in the league for strikeouts.

The Tigers have a powerful offense, ranking 7th overall, and they excel at hitting home runs, coming in at 9th in the league. They will need this firepower against a solid Giants bullpen, currently ranked 1st in MLB, showcasing their depth in relief pitching. Interestingly, the Tigers’ projected team total stands at a low 3.38 runs, suggesting that oddsmakers expect a close contest.

With the Game Total set at a low 7.0 runs, both teams face pressure to maximize their scoring opportunities. The Tigers’ strong lineup, combined with Webb’s elite performance, sets the stage for a thrilling game at Comerica Park.
