A day after the Tigers split a doubleheader with the Houston Astros, the finale of the four-game series was played on a breezy, muggy Sunday in Detroit, as some June Sundays can be around Michigan. The Tigers earned a split of the series as a whole as well, as a safety squeeze by Robbie Grossman in the 10th scored Akil Baddoo (who else?!) for a 2-1 Tiger victory.
The story of the game today was the best outing of Tarik Skubal’s career to date. More on that below, of course.
Seeing as how the Astros have the best record in the American League right now, and a sizzling offense averaging around six runs a game this season.
