— CLEVELAND — Tarik Skubal pitched seven innings while continuing to be mentioned in trade rumors and Justyn-Henry Malloy hit a two-run homer, leading the Detroit Tigers to an 8-2 win over the Cleveland Guardians on Monday night.
“This is team baseball,” Skubal said."We’re doing it all, playing defense, getting timely offense and we’re pitching well. It speaks to the guys in this clubhouse.”“I don’t know if we have any say in kind of what they’re doing," he said."We’re just trying to focus on winning today’s game and then tomorrow’s game. That’s all I really got to say about that.”
The Guardians have been scuffling on offense, and couldn't come up with the key hit against Skubal. Steven Kwan, the majors' leading hitter, popped up with the bases loaded in the second and struck out with two on in the fourth. Detroit took a 4-0 lead in the second, helped by two mistakes in center field by Guardians rookie Angel Martinez.
