Tigers' Tarik Skubal Works 5 Scoreless Innings in Rehabilitation Appearance

Tarik Skubal struck out six and touched 99 mph in his first minor league rehab outing since elbow surgery.

  • Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal pitched five scoreless innings Sunday for the Single-A West Michigan Whitecaps in his first rehabilitation appearance since undergoing elbow surgery last month.
  • The 29-year-old left-hander underwent a non-invasive procedure on May 6 to remove a loose body from his throwing elbow, marking his first official game action since last pitching for the Tigers on April 29.
  • Skubal threw 54 pitches with 44 strikes while facing 17 batters and touching 99 mph on the radar gun; he completed 15 additional pitches in the bullpen afterward.
  • When asked about his expected return to the Tigers, Skubal declined to provide a specific timeline, telling reporters, "That's a good question, that I'm not going to answer."
  • Before his injury, the two-time Young Award winner posted a 3-2 record with a 2.70 ERA over 43 1/3 innings, striking out 45 batters while walking only six during his seven starts this season.
