Jackson Jobe Finds His Groove | Detroit Tigers News

Jackson Jobe delivered his longest start yet in the majors, tossing six and one-third innings while striking out eight and allowing just one run — earning a standing ovation as he exited the mound. The Detroit Tigers pitcher, recovering from Tommy John surgery and returning only in August, showed flashes of his top prospect potential against a left-handed-heavy lineup. Relying on his sinker, curve, and slider — and mixing in a new cutter to avoid fastballs down the middle — Jobe proved his comeback is gaining momentum. Manager A.J. Hinch praised his command and aggression, while Jobe himself called it a confidence booster as he begins to find his rhythm. With more starts ahead in 2026, this outing signals a major step forward for both Jobe and the Tigers. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
