Plus, Skubal is even better at home. His ERA drops to 1.13 at Comerica Park, surrendering only 17 hits in 24 innings of work. While the Boston Red Sox are hitting .269 against southpaws, Skubal is a different beast. He’ll miss a lot of bats tonight and throw another gem.

The Detroit Tigers saw their first AL Cy Young winner since 2013 last year when Tarik Skubal became the unanimous choice, and he might just do it again.

Detroit dominated Game 1 of this series yesterday with a 14-2 victory. The Tigers had 18 hits to the Red Sox’s six with each team hitting two homers. Detroit is 6-2 in the last eight games, but 1-2 over the past three. Boston is 4-2 in the previous six games and 4-5 over the last nine.

Rafael Devers and the Boston Red Sox will try to beat Spencer Torkelson and the Detroit Tigers when the teams square off on Wednesday at 6:40 p.m. ET. The Tigers' .261 batting average is fifth-best in MLB. Red Sox pitchers have a combined ERA of 3.95 ERA this year, which ranks 15th in MLB.

Wilyer Abreu’s latest home run against the Tigers on Monday helped the Red Sox youngster achieve a feat only Rafael Devers and Mookie Betts had since 1988.
