Tarik Skubal gives up 3 runs in 5 innings, leaves with Dodgers trailing in his home debut

Tarik Skubal yielded three runs on four hits while pitching five innings in the back-to-back Cy Young Award winner's home debut for the Los Angeles Dodgers against Kansas City on Monday night. Skubal left with the Dodgers trailing 3-2 after a decent, if unspectacular, first start in the home whites. Although he struck out six, Skubal didn't live up to manager Dave Roberts' pregame prediction of “an electric night” for the vaunted left-hander and his slumping club, which lost eight of nine heading into this homestand.
