Pick

I’m backing the under here. Dylan Cease has owned the Tigers over the course of his career and honestly I look for this game to end up being no different, but Michael Lorenzen’s pitched well for the Tigers also, something I never thought I’d say about Lorenzen either. I think this game ends up being a surprising pitcher’s duel, so give me the under here.
