SAN FRANCISCO (AP) --- Jackson Jobe held the San Francisco Giants to one hit in
five scoreless innings in his first outing in the majors more than a year and
the Detroit Tigers broke it open with a six-run seventh inning in an 8-0
victory Saturday night.
Jobe (1-0) had been sidelined after Tommy John surgery in 2025. The
right-hander struck out four and walked one. Willy Adames' one-out single in
the fourth was the only hit Jobe allowed.
Relievers Tyler Holton and Ty Madden combined on the two-hitter. San Francisco
did not get a runner past first base.
Jobe's most recent big-league appearance came May 28, 2025, when he started
against the Giants in a 4-3 Tigers win in Detroit.
On Saturday, it was a 0-0 game through five innings. In the sixth, Giants
starter Landen Roupp (7-11) walked the bases loaded. With one out, reliever
Keaton Winn walked Spencer Torkelson to force home a run.
Detroit put up the six-spot in the seventh. The Tigers got to Trent Harris for
three runs. Making his major-league debut, Harris allowed a double to Zach
McKinstry and an RBI single by Kevin McGonigle before retiring Gleyber Torres
on a grounder to second.
Dillon Dingler followed with a double down the left-field line to bring home
McGonigle to make it 3-0. That was Dingler's 80th RBI of the season.
Lefty Reiver Sanmartin then replaced Harris. The Tigers tagged Sanmartin for
four hits in the inning, including a two-run double by pinch-hitter Eduardo
Valencia, an RBI triple by Max Clark and a run-scoring single by Javier Baez
that upped Detroit's lead to 7-0.
Roupp allowed one run on two hits in 5-1/3 innings. He walked five and struck
out three.
