Tarik Skubal made his Dodgers debut against the Cubs, delivering six strong innings despite boos from the crowd—striking out six, walking two, and giving up just two runs. His performance was bolstered by stellar defense from teammates, and manager Dave Roberts praised him as a humble “dog” on the field. Skubal, traded from Detroit just days prior, showed why LA brought him in, hinting at a major role in their World Series push. Even as a plane flew overhead with a banner criticizing the team, Skubal stood firm, crediting the Dodgers’ talent-building machine. His solid start signals big things ahead for a franchise already aiming for another title.
