Skenes probably thinks this will be easy with the "lumber company".

Is Skenes done?

Announcers pushing Skenes and Jones for people to come to PNC.

Just started following the game. I hope to heck no Pirates pitching coach ever says a word to Skenes the whole time he’s here.

This team is an enigma. Just when I’m about to say I’ve had enough they go and do what they did last night and are doing so far today. But I don’t think I’ve changed my mind about sending Suwinski down, moving McCutchen to the bench, and releasing Tellez. Those are moves that will make the team better.

SKENES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guy is awesome to watch. 100 pitches on the nose and the ump was not helpful.

He will be great for some team.

I’m guessing Shelton will remove Skenes after six innings and 100 pitches. He was much better today by looking at his pitching line: no runs, no hits, one walk, 11 strikeouts, two thirds of his pitches for strikes. This guy is really, really special.

Skenes gets his 11th K at 100 MPH on his 100th pitch.

I assume the next time he pitches will be in PNC. I'd love to be there for that game. I bet PNC tops 25,000 easy that night.

Record: Most strike outs by a Pirate pitcher in Wrigley.
