Tigers ace Skubal struggles in return from elbow surgery

Tigers ace Tarik Skubal showed rust in his first start since April 29, pitching 4 2/3 innings in a 3-1 loss to the Guardians. The left-handed pitcher admitted that he needs to be better following his performance.

Skubal had been sidelined recovering from elbow surgery before this crucial outing against Cleveland. Detroit hopes he will shake off the rust quickly as the season progresses.
