TEMPE, Ariz. -- Left-hander Tyler Skaggs struck out five over four scoreless innings in his Minor League start against the Brewers on Monday night at Tempe Diablo Stadium.
Skaggs walked one and allowed two hits, a triple in the second and an infield single in the fourth that could have been ruled an error. He threw 50 pitches, with his fastball hovering between 90-94 mph.
"I felt good," Skaggs said. "I felt strong. My mechanics were finally there, so I'm really happy about it."
Skaggs was particularly pleased with the effectiveness of his curveball, which he frequently deployed against the Milwaukee farmhands.
