Detroit Tigers: Turnbull looked great despite losing

The Detroit Tigers opened their final series at home in the 2019 season against the Minnesota Twins tonight with a four to two defeat. Despite the loss, Spencer Turnbull looked spectacular on the mound tonight.

Turnbull pitched six scoreless innings until he ran into trouble and gave up two runs in the seventh. Unfortunately, these two runs would earn him the loss on the game, bringing him to 3-16 on the season. Turnbull recorded five strikeouts on the game and two walks. He kept his pitch count low and had good velocity and command on his pitches, this is a good sign moving into the offseason for the young starter.
