In this article we will formulate a Detroit Tigers vs Kansas City Royals Prediction for this MLB Game on Saturday, April 27th at Comerica Park.

Royals Breakout Late

The Royals’ offense really broke out late on Friday and they scored seven runs in the 9th inning on the way to the victory. Maikel Garcia hit a home run and two RBIs. The Royals are averaging 4.57 runs while pitching is giving up 3.08 runs per Game. The offense is ranked 12th in the league while the pitching is ranked 1st. They have a run differential of 1.5 which is 3rd best in all baseball. They are averaging 1.12 home runs per Game which is seventh best in the league. Salvador Perez has hit seven home runs and driven in 25 RBis. Maikel Garcia has hit four home runs and driven in 16 RBIs.

Can Brady Singer Bounce Back?

 Getting the start for the Royals will be Brady SInger who sits with a 2-1 record and an ERA 1.33. In his last start against the Toronto Blue Jays, he went six innings giving up five hits and five runs. 

Tigers Lose Again

The Tigers can’t let this series get away from them, or this could spell the end of their chances at the American League Central. Reese Olson went seven innings giving up only one run and he really deserved better then to pick up a loss in the Game.  The Tigers are averaging 4.04 runs while their pitching is giving up 3.76 runs per Game. The offense is ranked 19th in the league while the pitching is ranked 6th. The pitching has been a strength for this team this season, and they are going to need the pitching to step up here. They are batting only .221 as a team. Getting the start for the Tigers will be Case Mize who sits with a 1-0 record and an ERA of 2.95. In his last start against the Twins, he was dominant going six innings giving up five hits and zero runs.

Detroit Tigers vs Kansas City Royals Betting Prediction

This Game is going to be lower scoring. Singer didn’t have his best start of the season in the last Game, but he still only has an ERA of 1.33. Mize sits with an ERA of 2.95, and he’s going to dominant in this Game. I really don’t think either of these offenses are going to find a lot of success here and that will be the difference as this Game is going to end up lower scoring. Back the under to cash here.
