Welcome home, Tigers! In this weekend’s series, we’ll see the Tigers take on the Cincinnati Reds. For the opening game of the series the Tigers fittingly went with an Opener, bringing Brant Hurter in for the first inning before turning things over to Keider Montero for the bulk of the game. The Reds looked to Nick Martinez to tame the Tigs. Both teams would have some cool, drizzly weather to contend with.
