DETROIT (Interstat) — The Tampa Bay Rays look to keep their playoff push on track Tuesday night when they continue a three-game series against the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park.

Tampa Bay enters with a 78-54 record, while Detroit is 62-70. The Rays won Monday’s series opener 4-1 and have won two straight. The forecast at game time calls for 74 degrees and cloudy skies.

Ian Seymour (9-4) is Tampa Bay’s scheduled starter. Jackson Jobe (1-1) is scheduled for Detroit. The Tigers won three of the first four meetings this season, including two of three in Tampa from June 1-3, so Detroit leads the season series 3-1. Detroit has lost nine of its last 10 games.

Drew Rasmussen has been one of Tampa Bay’s most dependable arms. He earned the win Monday, allowing one run on three hits over six innings with five strikeouts. Rasmussen is 5-0 with a 2.48 ERA over his last five starts. His recent work includes six innings of two-hit shutout ball at Seattle on Aug. 7 and six scoreless innings against the White Sox on Aug. 1.

Detroit’s Tanner Rainey also has been sharp out of the bullpen. He has not allowed an earned run in his previous five appearances, covering 6 2/3 innings with six strikeouts. Rainey pitched two scoreless innings in Monday’s 4-1 loss.

Jonathan Aranda provided much of Tampa Bay’s offense Monday with a home run and two RBIs.

Interstat’s game simulator projects a 3-2 Tampa Bay win, and its ELO system gives the Rays a 51.2 percent probability to win. Tampa Bay is a minus 1.5 run-line favorite, and the over/under is 7.5.

The teams close the series Wednesday at Comerica Park. The Rays then return home for a three-game weekend set against San Diego, while Detroit hosts the Los Angeles Dodgers beginning Friday.
