The Tigers won this game. By a lot.
But let’s be real, there’s still only one thing about this game that matters, and it’s this:
Since this is only the first game of a double-header, and it will also be best remembered for Miguel Cabrera getting hits 3000 and 3001, I’m just going to hit the high points. Skubal had another strong outing, and relieve De Jesus made his MLB debut with a 1-2-3 inning in the eighth.
Inning 1: The Rockies got a Grichuk single but no runs. The bottom of the inning was where all the magic happened.
