> New York Yankees 4, Detroit Tigers 2 - final
Tarik Skubal was a bit off his usual excellence, but he did well enough. The blame for the Tigers' loss goes more to the Tigers' hitters and their lack of scoring.
Paul Goldschidt hit a home run leading off the top of the first.
In the bottom of the second inning, Spencer Torkelson doubled, Hao-Yu Lee walked, and Zach McKinstry singled to drive in Mr. Torkelson.
Mr. Goldschmidt homered again in the top of the third.
In the bottom of the fourth, Spencer Torkelson walked, went to third on a combination of a single by Hao-Yu Lee and a fielding error by Jasson Doninguez, and scored on a sacrifice fly by Ben Malgeri.
In the top of the sixth, Ben Rice singled, and Jasson Dominguez homered.
The Yankees won two of three games in Detroit. These same two teams will meet up next week in New York City. Before that, however, the Tigers host the Astros for a four-game series.
