The Texas Rangers scored one run but the Detroit Tigers scored two runs.
Baseball is rarely predictable but the Rangers flailing against reigning Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal with a sort of give-up lineup seemed written in stone. And that’s how things pretty much played out. Even so, here they were in a 1-1 game with Skubal hitting the showers before the seventh inning had concluded.
Despite the fact that Nathan Eovaldi couldn’t pitch tonight to make this the marquee matchup of two of the best in the AL, the pitching staff still honored the deal with Jacob Latz stepping in for five innings of one-run ball which was extended to seven innings by Luka Jackson and Hoby Milner.
