Tigers ride another strong outing by Skubal to fifth straight win

Detroit – Rolling, rolling, rolling.

The Tigers, after a two-hour, 10-minue rain delay, rode a pair of solo home runs and another stout performance from rookie left-hander Tarik Skubal to a 4-1 win over the Texas Rangers Tuesday night at Comerica Park.

It was their fifth straight win coming out of the All-Star break. And the seventh straight loss for the Rangers.

"Our players have done an incredible job of staying in the moment of the day's game," manager AJ Hinch said. "That's all we care about is today's game. And another example is when you get delayed at the last minute like we were tonight and you still stay hungry for the day.
