All-Star starter Tarik Skubal won his first game since June and Javier Baez homered, doubled and knocked in four runs as the Detroit Tigers beat the Philadelphia Phillies and ace Zack Wheeler 7-5.

The Detroit Tigers hit four home runs and Tarik Skubal outdueled fellow ace Zack Wheeler in a 7-5 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday afternoon at Citizens Bank Park. The Tigers (65-47) and Phillies (62-48) have split the first two games of the series and will play the rubber match in a nationally televised game on Sunday night.

Tarik Skubal struck out 10 with no walks over seven innings and the bullpen held off the Phillies in a 7-5 victory.

Those four pitches were all splitters as Duran finished out a Phillies comeback victory over the Tigers to take the series opener -- and regain first place in the National League East. In one of the most electrifying games of the year, Duran stole the show in his debut.

Jhoan Duran made an electric Phillies debut with an epic entrance and 4-pitch save, thrilling Citizens Bank Park in a 5-4 win.

The Phillies acquired outfielder Harrison Bader for two minor leaguers, their second deal with the Twins in two days after landing closer Jhoan Duran.
