The Tiger Beat: Hey Chicago, what do you say?

Can the Tigers win a game today?

Look, the less we talk about that trip to Chicago, the better. This weekend we have a different Chicago team meeting the Tigers on home turf, tickets are likely to sell out, Tarik Skubal is taking the mound tonight, and we have high hopes. We’ve got to. One bad series won’t undo a great season start.

We’ve got a few news tidbits for you this weekend. There’s a chat with Tarik Skubal about his motivation. We also look at the potential sale of the White Sox (eventually), and a wild comeback win by the DBacks.
