Harold Castro came up limping as he tried to beat out a ground ball. Looks like he’s coming out of the game. He’s got one of the Tigers’ three hits
8-18-2000, the Tigers beat the A’s 10-1. Bobby Higginson homered in the 1st for his birthday. Hideo Nomo struck out 8 & allowed just 2 hits over 7 innings. Rich Becker had 3 hits, a home run & 3 RBI.
Two-out walk to Yoan Moncada comes back to haunt Daniel Norris, but he probably should’ve had an 0-2 count on him.

Norris throwing 95 mph fluidly. He’s going to end up being a very valuable piece — with Fulmer and Skubal working short innings. Alexander, too
Tarik Skubal’s MLB debut ends with 4 runs on 7 hits over 2 innings with a walk and a strikeout. Fastball reached 97 mph, but no called strikes on any secondary pitches. PItching coach Rick Anderson still talking with him in dugout an inning later.
Final line for Detroit Tigers left-hander Tarik Skubal in his MLB debut: 2 IP, 7 H, 4 ER, 1 BB, 1 K. 52 pitches (33 strikes).

Tarik Skubal’s first K will probably be his final pitch tonight, a slider to fan Eloy Jimenez in 2nd.

Lots of damage in the second inning for Tarik Skubal. He gets Eloy Jimenez swinging on a slider to end the frame. Skubal is at 52 pitches. Probably done.
