I.L GAME OF THE YEAR! *GOING FOR 15 IN A ROW*
(MLB) LA Dodgers vs. Detroit,
Money Line: -135.00 Detroit (Home)
Result: Loss
At 6:40 ET, my I.L GOY is on Detroit. The Tigers are favored against the Dodgers because they've got their ace Tarik Skubal pitching. The American League Cy Young Award front-runner, Skubal has been brilliant all season. He's 10-3 with a 2.37 ERA and 0.90 WHIP. He struck out 13 with 0 walks last start. He's 6-0 with a 1.74 ERA at home. Skubal will be opposed by James Paxton. I've been watching Paxton a long time and he's not quite what he used to be. In 10 road starts, he has a 5.36 ERA. He gave up 9 runs in 4 innings in his last road start. The Dodgers have been outscored 28-7 in losing their last 4 games. Facing Skubal on his home mound is not the guy you want to be facing when trying to break a slump. Play on Detroit.
