The Minnesota Twins right-hander will pitch Saturday in the middle game of a three-game road series with the Detroit Tigers. Ober (4-5, 4.90 ERA) has lost all four of his June starts, surrendering 23 runs in 24 1/3 innings. The long ball has been his downfall, with Ober giving up 10 this month.
Ober hasn't recorded a victory since May 3. He had five no-decisions to end May.
Ober has made 11 career starts against Detroit, posting a 4-2 record and 3.39 ERA.
In contrast to Ober, Tigers right-hander Casey Mize (7-2, 2.88 ERA) hasn't given up more than two earned runs in any of his four June starts. Mize, Ober's mound opponent on Saturday, was removed in the sixth inning of his outing in Tampa against the Rays due to cramping.
Minnesota has traditionally been a tough foe for Mize. He's 1-4 with a 5.30 ERA in eight career starts against the American League Central division rival.
The Twins have allowed just two runs in the past three games following a five-game slide.
