Jackson Jobe entered a pressure-packed situation in Game 4 of the ALDS, facing the middle of the Cleveland Guardians' lineup.

And Jobe, the Detroit Tigers' rookie pitching phenom and top prospect, did his job to keep the Guardians in check in the eighth inning Thursday at Comerica Park.

Jobe entered with the Tigers trailing 4-3 in the top of the eighth, needing a win to advance to the American League Championship Series.

Jobe got Guardians cleanup hitter Josh Naylor to chase an outside fastball and pop out in foul territory. Lane Thomas worked a 3-2 count against Jobe in the next at-bat, but he was late on a 99.6 mph fastball on the outside corner and flew out to Wenceel Pérez in right field.

Pérez had a chance to end the inning on a Will Brennan line drive to deep right field, but Pérez dropped the catch as he collided with the wall, resulting in a double. In the next at-bat, Andres Gimenez smoked a groundball to the hole between Colt Keith and Vierling, but Keith made a diving stop and flipped it to first for a scoreless inning.

Jobe came back in the ninth but exited with one out and runners on first and third. On the next at-bat, David Fry delivered a perfect squeeze bunt to extend Cleveland's lead to 5-3. The run was credited to Jobe.

Fry entered as a pinch-hitter in the seventh and delivered a go-ahead two-run home run.
