Detroit Tigers fans ultimately didn’t get to see the team take on Cleveland in the rain on Thursday afternoon. With a potential make-up game set for Monday, the Tigers will head south.
The team will travel to Atlanta for three games against the National League East franchise, who currently sit in the division cellar.
Atlanta entered play on Friday with a 65-92 record and a -132 run differential that is only better than the run differential of four franchises.
This may play to Detroit’s advantage as fellow Wild Card contenders Baltimore and Toronto have to deal with the Yankees and Red Sox in their respective final series.
