Happy Skubal day, everyone! Ahead of today’s early outing between the Yankees and Tigers, with Carlos Carrasco on the mound for the Bronx Bombers, the Tigers had to make a sudden injury adjustment. Jake Rogers evidently felt tightness during batting practice.
So let’s see how the game shook out with an atypical battery of Tarik Skubal and Dillon Dingler.
In the first Paul Goldschmidt got a leadoff single to start things off for the Yankees. Ben Rice followed with a single of his own. But then Skubal got them figured out and got the next three outs in a row.
