In his previous start, Detroit Tigers left-handed rookie Tarik Skubal broke the rookie record for most strikeouts in a season set by Spencer Turnbull. Today, he looks to continue to make history.
As the Detroit Tigers continue their road trip across the NL Central with a three-game series starting in Pittsburgh this afternoon, it does seem rather fitting that Tarik Skubal would take the mound on Labor Day.
