The Detroit Tigers won their second consecutive game tonight against the Kansas City Royals tonight with a score of 5-2. This win came behind the pitching of none other than Edwin Jackson, who last started in a Tigers uniform in 2009.
Jackson was pitching for Toledo and was optioned up to Detroit earlier today to start tonight’s game. Jackson pitched a spectacular game, going 6.1 innings and only allowing one run on four hits. While he has not had the greatest season in 2019, this performance gives him his second win on the season and drops his ERA to 9.
