Paul Skenes Shoves in Pirates 6-0 Win Over Snakes
North Shore Nine: A Pittsburgh Pirates PodcastAbout this episode
NS9 Postgame Show Powered by Primanti Bros. Paul Skenes was downright filthy. Tyler and Jim break down another dominant outing from the Pirates ace, who tossed six shutout innings with nine strikeouts and stranded every runner the D-Backs put on. We dive into the ridiculous stats behind his start, his historic first-inning dominance, and why the NL Cy Young race might be his to lose. The offense also showed up. Bryan Reynolds had one of his best games in weeks, Oneil Cruz continued to flash superstar potential, and Tommy Pham stayed hot. The guys discuss Reynolds’ importance to the team’s future, Cruz’s post-All-Star break turnaround, and how this team looks heading into the trade deadline. Oh — and the Pirates just held the Diamondbacks scoreless for an entire series. We wrap with thoughts on Carmen Mlodzinski, the bullpen stepping up, and what could be the final days for a few Pirates at the deadline.
