Marlins look to continue their surprisingly hot start as road trip opens in the Motor City against the Tigers

Winners of nine of their first 14 games, the Miami Marlins head into Friday’s series opener against the Detroit Tigers sitting in first place in the National League East standings, in search of their third consecutive win this season as well as their third straight win at Comerica Park. The Tigers are on a five-game losing skid after being swept by the Twins earlier in the week and now begin a six-game home stand, looking to find some defensive help, having allowed four or more runs in five of their last six games. Miami will start former Tiger right-hander Chris Paddack (0-1, 8.31 ERA) while Detroit will counter third-year righty Keider Montero (0-1, 4.15 ERA) in his second start of the season.
