Tigers Face Former Ace Skubal | Detroit Tigers News

The Tigers face a brutal test tonight as they open a series against the Dodgers, pitching against former ace Tarik Skubal—now a Cy Young contender after being traded in August. With Detroit reeling (10 losses in 12 games, playoff odds at 2%), a win could be vital. But injuries hit hard too: Matt Vierling’s recovery stalled with heel soreness, and Riley Greene might return this weekend in a rehab game. The Dodgers’ rotation only gets stronger next: Blake Snell and Tyler Glasnow follow Skubal, and Ohtani may even pitch an inning on Sunday. Game time: 6:40 PM ET on Detroit SportsNet.
