The Tigers are favored at -130 to win this game on the road, with the Cards listed at +120, and a posted total of 8.

The Tigers send rookie Justin Verlander to the hill for the second time in this Fall Classic. Verlander was tagged for seven runs on six hits in five innings in Game 1,and is looking to rebound from that performance. Craig Monroe has hit two solo homers so far in this series.
David Eckstein was 4-for-5 with two RBIs as the Cards fought back on Thursday to edge Detroit 5-4. Adam Wainwright came on in relief to earn the win after Jeff Suppan started the game. For the Tigers, Jeremy Bonderman was given the ball, but Joel Zumaya took the loss. Scott Rolen went deep in the second, one of three hits and two RBIs for the Tigers.
