Paddack showcased his tried and true fastball-changeup one-two punch, pounding the zone, but also gave some of his off-speed pitches a run and had a lot of success. He had an 18% whiff rate and an astounding 80% first-pitch strike rate.

Kerry Carpenter hit a two-run homer and drove in three runs, Chris Paddack threw six solid innings in his Detroit debut and the Tigers beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 7-2.
