Kenley Jansen snatches defeat from the jaws of victory
Skenes v. Jobe? Holy mackerel, what a matchup! Well, indeed, on paper it looked to be a game in which the starters would go deep and we’d all be treated to a classic pitching battle.

Tigers look to take rubber match from Pirates on Wednesday afternoon
The Detroit Tigers were unable to seal the deal on Tuesday night, falling to the Pittsburgh Pirates, 4-1, to even the weekday series at PNC Park.

Jobe jittery as Sox’ bats boom in loss
