Kevin Gausman surpasses Tarik Skubal while Blue Jays wins again

DETROIT – Kevin Gausman gave a safe blow and a walk while withdrawing 10 in six laundering rounds to exceed the prevailing winner of the American league Cy Young Award, Tarik Skubal, in the impressive 6-1 victory of Toronto Blue Jays on the Detroit Tigers on Saturday evening.

Skubal granted five strokes of six -rounds without goal while walking three and withdrawing seven. But the Blue Jays shattered the enclosure of Strait Lights on their way to their third consecutive victory in this battle of the first place teams.

“This is a heavyweight fight,” said Jays George Springer’s aerobatman in the post-match show of Toronto on Sportsnet, referring to the Gausman-Skubal match. “These guys have become a blow and fought the whole match. But Gausy launched the lights. It is only a hell of a ball game.”

The single of two BO BICHETTE points has broken an equal equality in the eighth round. Nathan Lukes, Springer and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. then achieved a ninth in four points when the Jays won their fourth consecutive and increased their Al East advance to 6½ games on New York Yankees.

Tigers have lost six consecutive games and 12 out of 13, but still have a comfortable advance in the Central. They scored only 33 points during this section (2.5 per game), and they were held at a pair of simple Jake Rogers on Saturday while Gausman crushed the team at home.

“It looked like three years ago,” said Toronto manager John Schneider about Gausman, 34, who won 12, 12 and 14 games in his first three seasons with the Jays. “He just dominated where he wanted to go with the ball, and his separator was a manufacturer of difference.”

Four Toronto launchers combined for 13 stick withdrawals and a walk, and Braydon Fisher (4-0) launched a seventh perfect for victory. The Jays have been 8-1 since the stars break and won 21 out of 26 in total.

Meanwhile, the ninth round of Riley Greene placed the only Strait race, while the lifter goes (5-2).

The Tigers will try to save the last match in the series on Sunday when the former AS of Detroit Max Scherzer (1-0, 5.14 ERA) will start for the Jays against Jack Flaherty (5-10, 4.77).
