Skubal (5-8) lost Thursday's 5-3 game at the hands of the Twins, allowing five runs (three earned) on six hits and a walk with five strikeouts in six innings.
Skubal had only surrendered two runs through six innings but permitted a game-tying Miguel Sano home run to begin the seventh, then he gave up a single and error before departing. The latter two runners eventually scored and Skubal was saddled with the loss despite the quality start, his first in eight turns.
