The Yankees defeated the Angels 5-1, solidifying their position as they maintained pressure on their rivals, who remained inactive. The Detroit Tigers also continued to dominate the American League, winning 3-1 against the San Francisco Giants. Tarik Skubal's complete game shutout revitalized the Tigers after a minor slump, while Keider Montero's effective start complemented an offensive surge in the middle innings. Despite some shaky moments from the bullpen, the Tigers managed to secure their victory with a strong defensive performance that kept the game under control.
"The Tigers have been riding high atop the AL for most of the year, but they were on a bit of a downswing until yesterday's dominant Tarik Skubal complete game shutout to salvage the finale of a series with Cleveland."
"Keider Montero got the start and was effective through five innings of work, allowing just a single hit and a pair of walks... it was smooth sailing from there."
"Detroit's bullpen took over starting in the sixth, and things were a bit shaky at first... but induced a double play from Adames right after to avoid putting up a crooked number."
