Seattle Mariners vs Detroit Tigers Prediction 

Detroit was able to jump all over Seattle in the first game of this series on Tuesday night and they have won three of their last four games against the Mariners. Detroit is 27-31 at home, while Seattle is 26-31 on the road. The Mariners had a four game winning streak prior to the loss on Tuesday and every game is super important, as they try to catch Houston in the AL West. Seattle has the pitching advantage with Woo on the mound, as it looks like Detroit is going to go with a bullpen game once again. My Seattle Mariners vs Detroit Tigers prediction is for Seattle to win by at least two runs.
