Detroit opens things back up on the road in the Lone Star State this weekend.

Welcome back, folks!

The Detroit Tigers — save for those involved with this week’s festivities — got a much-needed breather during the All-Star break and now open up the second half of the season on the road against the Texas Rangers .

The Motor City Kitties still hold the best record in all of Major League Baseball with a one-game lead over the Los Angeles Dodgers . In the American League Central Division, AJ Hinch and Co. maintain an MLB-best 11.5-game lead over the second-place Minnesota Twins while the team’s run differential is still the third-best in the big leagues at plus-87.

Meanwhile, the Rangers hold onto third place in the AL West, lagging behind the first-place Houston Astros by 8.5 games while amassing a run differential of plus-47. Much like Detroit heading into the All-Star break, Texas also split its last 10 games evenly at 5-5.

On Friday night, the Olde English D returns to action with Reese Olson on the mound, while the Lone Star boys send Patrick Corbin to the hill to defend their home turf. Here is a look at how things match up.
