Minneapolis — Gio Urshela slammed a two-run home run in the bottom of the 10th inning to give the Twins a 5-3 win over the Tigers.
The Tigers had gone up 3-2 in the top of the inning on an RBI single by Akil Baddoo.
The best way to describe Tarik Skubal’s abbreviated outing Monday night was fierce.
He was knocking hitters off the plate with fastballs in and sliders at their feet. He was bullying them with fastballs (his two-seamer hit 97 mph) and teasing them with changeups and knuckle curves.
He blanked the Central Division-leading Twins on three hits over five innings in an efficient 77 pitches.
