Tarik Skubal dominated and the Tigers held off a ninth inning rally to take Game 1 from the Astros by a final score of 3-1. Detroit scored three two-out runs with three straight singles in the second off of Houston starter Framber Valdez while Skubal threw six shutout innings and allowing four hits and a walk with six strikeouts. Skubal was removed after 88 pitches due to cramping.
