Tarik Skubal Prepares for Emotional Return to Detroit

Tarik Skubal is set to face his former team, the Detroit Tigers, at Comerica Park this Friday, his first appearance against them since an August 2 trade. The two-time Cy Young winner, who holds a 2.67 ERA this season, admits he expects to feel emotions during the reunion but remains focused on the game. In four starts for the Dodgers since the trade, Skubal is 1-2 with a 3.38 ERA and maintains that his professional approach remains unchanged despite the quick turnaround.
