Tarik Skubal, the frontrunner to win the American League Cy Young Award, allowed one run on four hits and zero walks with six strikeouts across six innings, throwing 84 pitches. A comebacker hit his non-throwing right hand in the sixth, but he finished the inning.
Skubal took a comebacker — 71 mph exit velocity — off his right hand, just below the base of his glove. He bobbled the ball and made an athletic catch with his left hand, but after the play, he dropped his glove to the mound and shook his right hand in pain.
Jason Foley hadn't allowed an earned run since the end of July. His streak of 18 games and 16 innings ended with two earned runs in the ninth inning of Thursday's series finale against the Colorado Rockies at Comerica Park. Shit happens.
The Tigers fell further behind the Twins, who hold the final AL wild-card spot.
