Matt Vierling hit a tiebreaking single with two outs in the eighth inning and the Detroit Tigers snapped a season-worst six-game losing streak by beating the Texas Rangers 2-1.

Tarik Skubal picked up right where he left off in his first start after the All-star break, dazzling against the Rangers.

It’s Monday, July 21 and the Tigers (60-40) are in Pittsburgh to take on the Pirates (39-61). Jack Flaherty is slated to take the mound for Detroit against Paul Skenes for Pittsburgh.

He exited with Rangers’ training staff shortly after and was replaced by reliever Caleb Boushley.
