Dingler’s Chance Against Skubal | Detroit Tigers News

The Detroit Tigers face a twist in their upcoming series against the Los Angeles Dodgers: former ace Tarik Skubal, who won back-to-back Cy Youngs, is now on the opposing team. With Skubal’s former catcher Dillon Dingler stepping up to face him — despite a recent slump — the Tigers’ best shot at success hinges on Dingler capitalizing on his deep knowledge of Skubal’s pitches and tendencies. If key hitters like Kevin McGonigle or Gleyber Torres can get on base, Dingler could deliver a historic performance against the pitcher he once helped dominate. The emotional stakes are high as Skubal prepares to pitch against his old team — and the game tips off tonight at 6:40 PM ET.
