Tarik Skubal pitches a near perfect outing as he goes the distance for the Tigers in a 5-0 win over the Guardians in the early Sunday game. The Guardians managed just two hits and a hit batter, one of those runners removed with a double play. Skubal struck out 13 batters, but still threw an efficient 94 pitches.

That shutout generated a game score of 96. That’s the highest on the season, beating Michael King‘s 90 from April 13th. It’s tied for the fourth highest game score of the decade. Skubal has now struck out 92 and walked just seven in 2025.
