Troy Melton is lighting up the Detroit Tigers’ pitching staff with a seven-inning shutout against the Mariners, backing it up with a team that exploded for eight runs — bringing them within a game and a half of the wild card. Meanwhile, newly traded Tarik Skubal made his Dodgers debut, striking out six but taking the loss after giving up two earned runs. With Skubal gone, Melton’s emergence as a potential ace could be the key to the Tigers’ playoff push, even as veteran Framber Valdez struggles with consistency. The offense is firing on all cylinders, matching franchise records despite missing key players — and fans are watching closely to see if Melton can sustain this breakout and carry the Tigers into October.
