Royals Beaten, 9-1, by Detroit
Starting Pitcher Tarik Skubal was lights out, as the Detroit Tigers beat the Kansas City Royals, 9-1. The winning pitcher was Skubal, now 14-8. He tossed 7 innings of 5-hit ball, while walking 1 and fanning 8. With the win, Detroit has a record of 76-78. Kansas City falls to 80-74.

Colt Keith, who is a two-time All-Star, chipped in a 2-run home run for Detroit in the bottom of the second. For the game, the second baseman had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 2 runs scored, and 2 runs batted in.

"The only difference is executing pitches and not executing pitches," said Skubal. "When you don't execute, you get beat. When you execute, you usually give your team a chance to win."
