Tigers 8, Twins 2: A low-stress win is apparently possible

For everyone who hadn’t already floated away from all this rain we’re getting in the Great Lakes region, they were able to see the Tigers finally take on the Twins in what, after Thursday’s rainout, was the opener of a four-game, now-three-day weekend series in Detroit.

After another rain delay of about an hour — seriously, can’t the government stop this or something? — and the wind blowing out, the Tigers really didn’t the ball too hard all evening but they won easily, 8-2.

Tarik Skubal made his third start for the Tigers in 2024, and his previous pair of performances could’ve been titled A Tale of Two Tariks.
