Skubal’s Secret Weapon Set to Unravel the Orioles’ Game Plan Tonight
For the Tigers, they don’t really have the same luster of the big names or even an outstanding farm system. What they do have is a good pitching staff, and they seem to be connecting the pieces rather well for the offense. Last year that was a bigger struggle for them, but to this point in the young season, they are hitting pretty well. The team collectively has a .245 batting average, and they have produced 122 runs. The strength of this team is the opposite of the Orioles, though. Detroit does well because their pitching staff is very good. The team has a 2.91 ERA for the season and a 1.12 WHIP. There just aren’t many scoring opportunities against them. Today they send out Tarik Skubal to the mound, the reigning Cy Young winner. Skubal is 2-2 with a 2.83 ERA and a 1.12 WHIP. The Orioles haven’t faired well against Skubal in the past, hitting just .184 against him over 49 at-bats.Â
