Dodgers snap skid behind Skubal
The Dodgers scored a run in the 6th to tie and a run in the 8th to lead
The Los Angeles Dodgers secured a 2-1 victory over the Detroit Tigers on August 28, 2026, ending a brief losing streak. Pitcher Tarik Skubal returned to Comerica Park and finished the game with a perfect performance, allowing only one run on four hits, striking out seven, and walking none over six innings. Skubal faced a warm reception from the crowd, though not as enthusiastic as Gleyber Torres' double that started the game for the Tigers.
The Dodgers struggled to capitalize on scoring opportunities, leaving seven men on base during the game. Max Clark broke through with a key RBI triple against Skubal, giving the Tigers a 1-0 lead. Miguel Rojas contributed a clutch pinch-hit single in the bottom of the eighth, securing a 2-1 win for the Dodgers in a close and competitive matchup.
