00:00The game we're going to take a look at right now, the Tigers, three, the Astros, one.
00:08You want to talk about two of the best pitchers in Major League Baseball, let alone the American
00:11League.
00:12You got that on the bump yesterday.
00:13It was Tarek Skubal of the Detroit Tigers.
00:15It was Frambois Valdez of the Houston Astros.
00:18An unbelievable atmosphere, and you know who was better?
00:20It was Tarek Skubal.
00:21He's the best pitcher in Major League Baseball.
00:23An absolutely filthy, dominant, left-handed pitcher, goes six innings, four earned runs,
00:29excuse me, six innings, four hits, no earned runs, and six strikeouts yesterday.
00:33An absolutely dominating performance, which this is the reason why, Dubsy, I keep saying,
00:37I didn't want to face the Tigers in a short series because I knew Tarek Skubal would be
00:42bringing the heat.
00:43Dubsy, he did that yesterday.
00:45And what more can you want from your starting pitcher there, Donnie?
00:48You highlighted some of the numbers out of the box score.
00:51Absolutely shining bright for the Tuesday afternoon.
00:54Complete control, complete command.
00:55It was a low score.
00:56The Tigers put up three there in the second and never looked back.
01:00The Astros have certainly got the class.
01:02They've got the pedigree.
01:03They've got that postseason experience, and that's the way the odds makers were trying
01:06to tell us this game would go up.
01:08But what a postseason start this was for Skubal and for the Tigers.
01:11They're going to be a very tough out moving forward.
01:14There could be a couple of interesting tactics with game two coming up this afternoon.
01:19Must win.
01:20Looks like they may be throwing the old kitchen sink, the bullpen, at Houston, but Houston
01:24aren't going to go out without a fight.
01:26But Tariq Skubal, he's been impressive all season long there, Donnie, and he continued
01:30to live up to the billion.
01:32That's why he's the Triple Crown winner and likely going to be that Cy Young Award winner
01:35as well.
