It wasn’t the prettiest outing, but Paul Skenes managed to grind out a win in the Pittsburgh Pirates’ 5-0 victory over the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field.

 

Skenes pitched five shutout innings, allowing four hits and four walks and he struck out six batters on 100 pitches. With the win, Skenes improved to 9-2 with a 2.13 ERA.

 

The Cubs managed to load the bases in each of the first two innings and had runners on first and second with two outs in the third, but the Pirates’ rookie right-hander wiggled out of each situation unscathed.

 

Skenes retired seven batters in a row to end his outing.

 

With that performance, Skenes improved to 2-0 in his two starts at Wrigley Field, pitching 11 innings without allowing a run and he struck out 17 batters.
