"Little teary-eyed out there, honestly, before the inning started," Skubal said Sunday.
The 28-year-old former Seattle University standout had his first complete game since a pair of seven-inning efforts in 2015 during his freshman season.
Skubal (5-2) gave up only one more hit and hit one batter in a masterful, 94-pitch outing that included just 22 balls.
He's the first player in franchise history to have a complete game without a walk, two or fewer hits and 13 strikeouts.
Skubal pitched the eighth complete game in the major leagues this season and fifth individual shutout.
