The Detroit Tigers enter their home series opener against the Philadelphia Phillies riding a hot streak with eight wins in their last nine games. Detroit's bats have been especially reliable, scoring six or more runs in most recent games. In contrast, Philadelphia has struggled for consistency and Aaron Nola's pitching has been shaky this year with a 5.87 ERA. Despite the Phillies' historical edge in head-to-head matchups, the Tigers' current form makes them favorites to win the opener.
