‘Ride that Horse’: Old School Justin Verlander Urges Tigers to Lean on Ace
- Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal threw his first complete game recently and will make his next start Saturday at Kansas City.
- Skubal aims to pitch deep into games despite modern trends favoring relievers and manager A.J. Hinch's cautious inning limits to prevent injuries.
- In his last start, Skubal allowed two hits, struck out 13, threw 94 pitches with no walks, achieving the fifth individual shutout in the majors this season.
- Skubal said, "I want him thinking a lot about it" to make Hinch's decision to remove him difficult, and Hinch promised to leave efficient starters in late innings.
- Justin Verlander, who began his career under Jim Leyland's 120-pitch outings, noted that modern pitching pulls starters sooner, partly due to fatigue and the strength of relievers.
