The Tigers take aim at their fifth straight win as they open a three-game series against the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday at 7:10 p.m. at Comerica Park.
Ian Kinsler is also on a hot streak, homering in four straight games, lifting his season total to 10, just two back of the AL leaders at 12 – Robinson Cano, Mark Trumbo, Todd Frazier and Khris Davis.
The Tigers swept the Twins earlier this week and the Rays are coming off a sweep of their own, over the Blue Jays. Tampa Bay leads all of MLB with 58 home runs.
