White Sox deal blow to Tigers playoff hopes as Jackson Jobe whacked
Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Jackson Jobe gave up 5 runs in the fourth inning of a 9-5 loss to Chicago White Sox on Friday in the series opener.
The Detroit Tigers suffered a devastating loss to the Chicago White Sox on Friday, Aug. 14, as third-year pitcher Jackson Jobe posted a career-worst performance in the fourth inning. Jobe allowed five earned runs, including two home runs, a triple, a double, a single, and a walk, leading to a 9-5 loss for the Tigers at Comerica Park.
This marked Jobe's second start after recovering from Tommy John surgery, contrasting sharply with his five scoreless innings from the previous game in San Francisco. The loss extended the White Sox's lead in the American League Central to 3½ games over the Tigers, who now stand at 60-62, thwarting their push for a .500 record.
