Beating a team three times in a season is a tough task for any pitcher. No Tiger had beaten the Twins three times since 2016. Until Mize did it.
The Tigers (72-52) play the Twins (57-65) at 7:10 p.m. Eastern time at Target Field. Catcher Jake Rogers; infielders Javier Baez and Andy Ibanez; and outfielder Jahmai Jones will be available off the bench. The full lineup is below. Tigers right-hander Casey Mize (11-4, 3.50 ERA) will face Twins righty Zebby Matthews (3-4, 5.11).

Casey Mize has won both of his August starts, though neither would be classified as a dominant outing. The Detroit Tigers right-hander will aim for his third straight victory during the third contest of a four-game series against the Minnesota Twins on Saturday in Minneapolis.
"I'm proud to be where I am now," said Detroit Tigers right-hander Casey Mize, who made the MLB All-Star Game for the first time in the 2025 season.
