Prediction

Griffin Canning is coming off his strongest performance of the season, in which he threw six shutout innings against the Toronto Blue Jays last Thursday in relief of an opener. Tigers starter Mason Englert (1-0, 5.95 ERA) has never faced the Angels before, making his expectations tough to gauge. Canning's up and down season, and Englert's lack of experience, could make this a high-scoring game.

More

• Canning holds a lifetime 2-1 record and a 3.81 ERA against the Tigers.

• Since June 17, the Angels' bullpen has registered a major league-leading 2.75 ERA, with relievers holding a tight 1.05 WHIP.

• Angels shortstop Zach Neto is one of four American League players with 28 doubles, 19 home runs and 23 stolen bases this season.
