00:00The Tigers and the Padres, the rubber match of this three-game midweek set.

00:04Detroit took game number one.

00:06San Diego blanked the Tigers yesterday behind pitching Pavetta.

00:10DRS, tell us what happens today in game number three.

00:13The Tigers and Reese Olsen, greater than a dollar and a half favorite right now.

00:18You're getting the exact opposite on the mound today from what you saw yesterday

00:22in our guy pitching Pavetta, who's been tremendous this season,

00:25was absolutely sensational yesterday.

00:27And then they hand over the reins to Kyle Hart, who threw 71 batters this year.

00:31He has a combined ISO.

00:32He's a left-handed pitcher of 262 with a weighted on-base percentage of 369.

00:37He's done well against lefties.

00:39Absolutely flamed against right-handed batters.

00:42Anticipated right-handed batters in the lineup tonight outside of Green.

00:45Looks like Carpenter and Torkelson.

00:48Excuse me, Green, Carpenter, and McKinstry.

00:50That means you would have, what, six right-handed batters in the lineup.

00:53But also, some of these batters don't present themselves all that well.

00:56But it's also one of those fields that you have.

00:59Hart, 16 and two-thirds innings pitch band, close to a 7 ERA and a 5.5 XFIP number.

01:05You should get runs from Detroit.

01:07But it doesn't fit that centerpiece where it's like, hey, that looks like a great lineup here.

01:11But I will trust, like, maybe a Detroit team total to the over,

01:14just based on that pitcher, should get hit today.

01:16And yesterday, the Tigers didn't hit.

01:18They should repeat that today and hit.

01:19We'll see you next time.

01:21We'll see you next time.
