Paul Skenes wasn't at his best in Game 2 of a doubleheader Thursday, but he did more than enough to get a win, which, of course, he didn't.

After trailing 4-0 early, the Tigers rallied to force extra innings, but couldn't score in the 10th to lose, 8-4, to Pittsburgh.

With a win to get the team back on track, the Tigers extend their lead atop the American League Central to 9.5 games over the Cleveland Guardians. The Pirates are still at the bottom of the NL Central, 11 games back of a Wild Card spot. Where: Comerica Park (Detroit, Mich.)
