Reigning American League Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal will take the ball for the American League as the team's starter in the MLB All-Star Game on Tuesday in Atlanta. It's the first career All-Star start for Skubal, who seems to have received an assist from fellow AL All-Star and New York Yankees ace Max Fried.
Tarik Skubal learned he’d start the All-Star Game from Max Fried, who called to say, “I think you deserve it.” Boone made it official a day later.
