Detroit Tigers
LHP Matthew Boyd (5-5, 5.30 ERA)
14 GS, 74 2/3 IP, 93 H, 44 ER, 9 HR, 28 BB, 53 K, 4.46 FIP
Baltimore Orioles
RHP Chris Tillman (1-6, 7.65 ERA)
14 GS, 64 2/3 IP, 96 H, 55 ER, 14 HR, 32 BB, 50 K, 6.00 FIP
Who: Detroit Tigers (49-57) vs Baltimore Orioles (53-54)
When: 7:05 p.m. EDT
Where: Camden Yards
TV: Fox Sports Detroit
Radio: FM 97.1 The Ticket and the Tigers radio network
Notable
The Orioles have won five in a row and are 2.5 games out of the second wild card spot.
Tigers catcher James McCann is on a 12-game hitting streak. He is 19 for 44 (.432) during that span.
Boyd has won his past three starts since being called up from Toledo. He has allowed nine runs in 19 1/3 innings (4.19 ERA).
Boyd?s only other career start against the Orioles, which was earlier this season, did not go well. He gave up seven runs on eight hits in 2 1/3 innings.
Tillman is coming off one of his worst outings of the year, allowing eight runs on nine hits in 4 1/3 innings against the Rangers.
Tillman has dominated Detroit in his career with a 6-0 record and 2.45 ERA in nine starts.
Notable Tigers vs Tillman: Ian Kinsler .259 (7 for 27, 1 HR), Victor Martinez .300 (6 for 20, 1 HR), Miguel Cabrera .250 (5 for 20, 1 HR).
Three things to watch for in this game
The Tigers are hopeful shortstop Jose Iglesias can return to their lineup after missing the past two games with a sprained right wrist suffered on a swing Monday night against the Yankees.
In three starts since returning to the Majors, Boyd's average exit velocity allowed is just 81.8 mph. That tied for second lowest among starters who generated at least 50 batted balls in July, behind only Clayton Kershaw.
Orioles infielder Ryan Flaherty remains on a Minor League rehab assignment. He hasn't played since May 18 in Detroit, after which he went on the DL with right shoulder tendinitis.
