How to Watch Tigers at Rays (June 20): Stream MLB Live, TV Channel

Armed with the best record in baseball, the Tigers open three-game weekend series against the Rays

Despite a bit of a cooldown of late, the Detroit Tigers own a 9.5 game lead in the American League Central Division and have the most wins of any team in Major League Baseball as the first day of summer begins with a Friday night matchup against the Tampa Bay Rays at Steinbrenner Field. The Rays are seven games over .500 after opening their seven-game home stand with a split against Baltimore as they send fourth-year right hander Shane Baz (6-3, 4.54 ERA) to the mound in search of his third win in June against Tigers veteran Jack Flaherty (5-7, 4.03 ERA) who comes into this game off his worst outing of the season.

In his first season with the Tigers, Detroit second baseman Gleyber Torres is hitting a team-leading .281 this season and comes into this game with six multi-hit efforts already in June. Torres, who spent seven seasons with the Yankees, joined Detroit on a one-year deal in the offseason and has produced immediate dividends, solidifying the infield defensively and equaling the offensive output that made him a two-time All-Star in New York. Torres is on pace for his seventh 100-hit season and is quickly approaching career milestones as he sits 21 RBIs away from 500 and five runs scored shy of 500 for his eight-year career.

Rays first baseman Jonathan Aranda ranks third in all of baseball, hitting a team-high .329 this season, and has a five-game hitting streak with three multi-hit efforts in that span.

Detroit has won five of the last six meetings in this series, including each of the last three, and won two of three in Tampa last season.
