Skubal, Tigers
Digest more
Detroit Tigers left-hander Tarik Skubal recorded his latest gem on Sunday as part of a 5-0 shutout victory against the Cleveland Guardians ( box score ). Skubal, who carried a no-hitter into the sixth inning, struck out 13 of the 29 batters he faced and made some pitch-tracking era history (meaning since the start of the 2008 season) along the way.
In closing a four-game series against Cleveland by going the distance, Skubal spared the Tigers' relievers from being called into action, setting up Detroit with a full complement of bullpen arms to face the San Francisco Giants, in town for a three-game series starting on Memorial Day.
