The Lean

Game Snapshot

Detroit sends Jack Flaherty to the mound Saturday afternoon in a showdown against former Royals ace Brady Singer, as the Tigers aim to even the three-game series after Friday’s 11-5 loss. Flaherty has rebounded from a rough start—now 5-6 with a 3.41 ERA—while Cincinnati’s offense featured TJ Friedl’s third homer in four games. For up-to-the-minute pricing, check the Scores and Stats MLB odds board.

Tigers’ Rebound Behind Flaherty

After a 1-5 May stretch, Flaherty has delivered four consecutive quality starts, allowing just one run over his past 18 innings and matching a season-high nine strikeouts in his last outing. Re-signed by Detroit on a two-year deal following his World Series run with the Dodgers, Flaherty has a 3-2 mark and 3.67 ERA in ten career starts against the Reds—numbers that the home crowd of 40,000+ will expect him to improve upon.

Reds’ Offense Seeking Consistency

Cincinnati managed only five runs Friday but got a boost from leadoff man TJ Friedl, who now has eight home runs this season. With a lineup that has struggled sporadically, the Reds will look to their depth—anchored by hitters who excel at Coors View Farm Park—to pressure Brady Singer, who has a 6-1 record and 3.30 ERA in 13 career starts against Detroit.

Pitching Matchup

Singer (6-4, 4.59 ERA) rebounded Sunday with two runs over 5⅔ innings against Arizona but endured a 5.86 ERA span in his prior seven starts. Opposite him, Flaherty’s recent command of his fastball/slider repertoire has limited hard contact and kept opponents off balance. This duel of right-handers shapes whether Saturday unfolds as a high-scoring affair or a pitcher’s duel.
