"Last night saw the Detroit Tigers lose to the American League-worst Chicago White Sox 12-5. This marks the Tigers' third loss in their last four games and their eighth loss in their last eleven matchups. Toronto, on the other hand, has won four of their last five including three straight. With the Toronto Blue Jays beating the New York Yankees, the Tigers continue to lose ground to Toronto for the No. 1 seed in the American League."
"Over their last four games, Detroit has surrendered 31 runs, an average of 7.75 per game. Last year's Cy Young Award winner and current 2025 Cy Young favorite Tarik Skubal should help soften the blow, starting for Detroit on Saturday. Skubal has a 12-4 record and a 2.14 ERA, the lowest ERA in the American League and second-lowest in all of baseball."
Detroit lost 12-5 to the American League-worst Chicago White Sox, marking three losses in four games and eight in eleven. Toronto has won four of five, including three straight, increasing its lead. Detroit surrendered 31 runs over its last four games, averaging 7.75 runs allowed per game. Tarik Skubal (12-4, 2.14 ERA) will start Saturday and offers elite pitching to stabilize the rotation. With 20 games remaining Detroit trails Toronto by two games and would lose a tiebreaker after Toronto won the season series 4-3. Detroit's remaining schedule is easier but recovery is required to regain home-field advantage.
