Conversely, the Tigers find themselves struggling slightly in comparison, positioned at 11th in the division with a 43-49 record. Their performance in the division is slightly better, but they still trail with a divisional ranking of 4th due to a subpar 14-13 division record.

The point spread stands at 1.5, favoring the Cleveland Guardians, while the over/under is poised at 7.5 runs, suggesting expectations for a moderately low-scoring affair. For outright winners, the money line is -145 for the Guardians, reflecting their position as favorites; meanwhile, the Tigers stand at +123, indicating a slight underdog status. These odds provide a great opportunity for bets on both the game result and overall run totals.
