  • Following the game, Skubal didn’t divulge on when he thought he might return to the Tigers.

    “That’s a good question, that I’m not going to answer,” Skubal told reporters.

    The 29-year-old left-hander had a noninvasive procedure on May 6 to remove a loose body from his throwing elbow. Skubal last pitched for the Tigers on April 29.

    Skubal is 3-2 with a 2.70 ERA in seven starts this season. He has struck out 45 and walked only six over 43⅓ innings. Skubal has won the AL Cy Young Award in each of the past two seasons.
