Tarik Skubal Sets MLB Postseason Record With Seven Straight Strikeouts

Tigers ace Skubal made history in Game 5 of the ALDS, striking out seven consecutive Mariners batters — a new MLB postseason record. He also became the first pitcher with 10+ strikeouts and no walks through four innings of a playoff game. Skubal, 27, went 13-6 with a 2.21 ERA this season as Detroit chases its first title since 1984.
