A week ago, the Detroit Tigers dropped two of three games to the Minnesota Twins in Minneapolis at Target Field. After taking game one, 7-5, and splitting a doubleheader yesterday, the Tigers have a chance to put away the Twins early in this five-game home series, and their best will be on the mound in left-hander Tarik Skubal.
After taking a ball off his left shin on May 20, many Detroit fans feared that Skubal would be the next Tigers pitcher to hit the injured list, but the 25-year-old lefty bounced back in his next start against Cleveland.
