The Detroit Tigers begin the second half with a three-game series with the Kansas City Royals. Here’s how you can watch the games on TV or streaming online.

The Detroit Tigers begin the second half of the season at home with a three-game series against the Kansas City Royals at Comerica Park. With just over two weeks remaining until the (non-waiver) trade deadline, the Tigers are entering an important stretch of play.

The Tigers exit the All-Star break in second place in the American League Central Division. They currently sit 6.5 games below the Cleveland Indians and 0.5 games above the Royals (and Chicago White Sox).

In the Wild Card race, the Tigers trail the Blue Jays and Red Sox by four games with the Astros (two games ahead) being the only other team in front of Detroit.

The upcoming stretch could go a long way towards determining the Tigers’ action at the deadline as nearly every game is against an opponent they’re jockeying with in the standings. Here’s the schedule leading up to the deadline:

vs. Kansas City (3)
vs. Minnesota (3)
at. Chicago White Sox (4)
at. Boston (3)
vs. Houston (3)

Minnesota isn’t in the hunt but every other game will have massive implications in division or wild card positioning.

Here’s how you can find this weekend’s games on TV, internet live stream, or on the radio.
