Tigers Dominate with Skubal & Rookie Record | Oakland Athletics News

Colt Keith blasted a two-run homer in the first inning, sparking a six-two Tigers victory over the Athletics, while Tarik Skubal dominated with five scoreless innings and nine strikeouts. The win extended Detroit’s winning streak to six of seven, and rookie Kevin McGonigle shattered a 90-year-old MLB record by reaching base twice before the All-Star break. The Tigers’ offense, led by key hits from Vierling and McGonigle, proved too much for the A’s, who managed only two runs. The team heads into the break on a high note, with a crucial series finale looming tomorrow night. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
