Jonathan Schoop homered, as the Detroit Tigers defeated the New York Yankees 6-1 Saturday. Spencer Turnbull pitched into the sixth inning and earned the win, giving up a run on three hits. He struck out six. José Cisnero, Daniel Norris, Kyle Funkhouser and Joe Jiménez held the Bronx Bombers hitless down the stretch, and combined to strike out six more.

The Tigers host the Yankees again this afternoon. Tarik Skubal will start against Michael King. Coverage begins at 12:50 on 99.3 The Lift.

Detroit starter José Ureña has been placed on the 10-day injured list. He suffered a right forearm strain in Wednesday’s game. Team officials hope he’ll miss just one start. The Tigers have called infielder Zack Short back up from Toledo.

The Milwaukee Brewers took two from the Washington Nationals Saturday. In the afternoon contest, which made up Friday’s rainout, Freddy Peralta pitched all seven innings in a 4-1 victory. Peralta allowed just four hits, and struck out seven. Avisaíl García homered. In the nightcap, Kolton Wong and Luis Urías each had three hits and drove in two runs, as the Crew triumphed 6-2.

That series wraps up in the nation’s capital this afternoon. Brandon Woodruff will start against Max Scherzer.
