The Astros have only won four of their series so far this year, and that includes a two-game win over the Colorado Rockies. They have also lost at least three straight games five times this year.

After Friday’s game, the Tigers will face the Astros two more times, with former ace Justin Verlander set to take the mound on Sunday. The Tigers will have the ace of their staff, Tarik Skubak, pitching Saturday.
