Tarik Skubal allowed two runs with five strikeouts over 7 2/3 innings in a win over the Reds on Tuesday.

Skubal had gotten through two scoreless frames against the Reds before Elly De La Cruz took him deep for a two-run blast in the third. He’d recover nicely, settling in to pitch into the eighth without allowing another run while collecting five strikeouts. The 29-year-old left-hander will take a 2.84 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, and a 164/24 K/BB ratio across 139 2/3 innings into a start against the Reds in Cincinnati next Tuesday.
