Streaking Tigers aim to crown Royals

Baseball Betting Lines

07/22/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Winners in five of their last six and now two games ahead of Cleveland for first place in the American League Central, the Detroit Tigers close out a three-game set against the Kansas City Royals at Comerica Park this afternoon.

The Tigers, who now have the best record in the majors overall, moved to 26-20 at home thanks to a 10-8 victory against Kansas City in 10 innings on Saturday. Brandon Inge played the hero as he blasted a two-run home run in the bottom of the 10th to give the club it's eighth win in 11 tries against the Royals so far this season.

Craig Monroe homered and knocked in four runs for the Tigers, while Placido Polanco, Gary Sheffield and Magglio Ordonez all crossed the plate twice for the winning team.

Chad Durbin earned his seventh win of the season, while Detroit starter Justin Verlander lasted 5 2/3 innings, permitting four earned runs on seven hits and striking out seven, all while letting loose three wild pitches.

Joakim Soria suffered the loss for the visitors, allowing the long ball by Inge in extra innings. KC starter Jorge De La Rosa was touched for seven runs on seven hits, two of them home runs, over 4 1/3 innings.

Tony Pena tallied three hits for the Royals and scored twice, while Emil Brown knocked in two and John Buck cranked out his 16th home run of the campaign in the setback.

Right-hander Brian Bannister gets the call to the hill for the Royals this afternoon in an effort to even his season record which currently stands at 5-6.

The second-year man out of USC suffered his second straight loss on Monday after giving up three home runs and four total runs in six innings against Boston on the road. Bannister, who is 0-1 in his career against Detroit, carries an ERA of just under four into this contest.

As for the Tigers, they have Nate Robertson slated to make the start at home today. The lefty, who is nine games under .500 for his career but 4-3 versus Kansas City all-time, picked up his sixth triumph of the 2007 campaign on Tuesday as he gave up a mere three hits in seven shutout innings against Minnesota on the road in the dome.

The Wichita State product now in his sixth year in the majors, posted five strikeouts versus the Twins and reached the 500 strikeout plateau in the process.

Over the last six games the Tigers have picked up more than their share of victories, despite hitting just .257 as a team. The AL's leading hitter at .360, Ordonez has knocked in eight of the team's 31 runs over the last week of action and is now third in the league with 80 RBI overall.

Kansas City's Billy Butler may not have the season stats similar to Ordonez, but in the last week he certainly gives the Detroit All-Star a run for his money with 10 RBI and four runs scored. Mark Grudzielanek checks in with a total of 10 hits and a team-high eight runs during that stretch for the Royals, now 16 1/2 games out of the race in the AL Central and a mere 12-21 versus the rest of the division.
