Detroit — All good things must come to an end.
Unfortunately for the Tigers, that applies to starting pitcher Tarik Skubal’s scoreless streak and the team’s promising offensive start against the Guardians on Thursday night. That’s the bad news.
The good news is Skubal was able to shake off his one rough inning and Detroit’s bats were able to come through in the clutch, as Miguel Cabrera delivered a walk-off single and the Tigers kicked off a nine-game homestand at Comerica Park with a 4-3 win.
After cruising through the first two innings and extending his scoreless run to 21 innings – the longest by a starting pitcher this season – Skubal saw that streak and early 3-0 lead get wiped out.
