The Texas Rangers will look to start another long winning-streak when they visit the Detroit Tigers on Sunday night for the rubber-match of their three-game weekend set. Detroit blasted four home runs on Saturday, including three in a row in the first inning to snap Texas’ 10-game winning streak. Miguel Cabrera went deep after returning to the lineup from a three-game injury absence while J.D. Martinez continued to swing a hot bat by launching his sixth homer in eight games since making his season debut on May 12th. The Tigers are about to embark on an 11-game road trip that begins with four against major league-best Houston, but first must solve a pitcher that owns them. Rangers ace Yu Darvish has won all six career starts against Detroit and is 2-0 with a 2.03 ERA at Comerica Park. Texas managed only four hits in Saturday’s loss after averaging 6.4 runs during its 10-game streak.

Pitchers: Rangers – Yu Darvish (4-2, 2.76 ERA) | Tigers – Matthew Boyd (2-3, 5.18)

Darvish improved to 3-0 during a five-start unbeaten streak by striking out nine while allowing one run and four hits over seven innings to beat Philadelphia last time out. It was his fifth quality start in a row, a span during which he has allowed a total of nine runs, and marked the eighth time in nine starts he’s worked at least six innings. Cabrera is 6-for-18 with three doubles versus Darvish.

Boyd looks to rebound from a poor performance against Baltimore in which he lasted just with 2.1 innings while getting hammerd for seven runs and eight hits. That ended a string of three straight quality starts for Boyd, who is 1-3 with a 5.24 ERA in four career turns against the Rangers. Robinson Chirinos has two homers off Boyd in four at-bats.

Look for the Rangers to start another winning streak here with Darvish controlling the Tigers bats.
