FOX 2 - Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal has won the Cy Young Award for the second straight year.

Skubal is the first pitcher to win back-to-back Cy Young Awards since Jacob deGrom in 2018-19 and the first American League pitcher since Pedro Martinez in 1999 and 2000.

The ace joins elite company after another spectacular season in which the left-hander helped propel Detroit to a playoff berth.

The 28-year-old Skubal became the 12th player to win baseball's top pitching honor in consecutive years, joining a group that includes Hall of Famers Randy Johnson and Pedro Martinez.

Jacob deGrom was the previous pitcher to win consecutive Cy Youngs, pulling off the feat with the New York Mets in 2018 and 2019. Martinez was the last American League pitcher to do it, in 1999 and 2000.
