DETROIT — Tarik Skubal felt like he gave up a lot more than four runs. The reigning American League Cy Young winner and Detroit Tigers ace delivered a shaky outing against the Seattle Mariners Friday night, something that he’s rarely done this season.

Tarik Skubal gave up four runs in the fifth, as the Mariners snapped a three-game losing streak, pounding the Tigers, 12-3.

Tyler, now 31, was Tarik's most frequent and most combative opponent. They would wrestle or play one-on-one basketball games, what Tyler calls "Skubal Games" played by "Skubal Rules," which meant the defense calls fouls and "nobody ever thinks they foul, so most Skubal Games started out competitive and ended up as boxing matches."

Skubal (10-3) took the loss Friday, allowing four runs on four hits and two walks while striking out five over five innings in the 12-3 loss to Seattle.

Detroit's ace pitched 10 scoreless innings against Cleveland and got plenty of help from his teammates along the way.
