Episode Details

Paul Skenes dominated on Sunday, tossing seven innings and striking out eight while allowing just one run, leading the Pirates to a 7-1 rout of the Guardians. It was his first seven-inning start since early May and his first win since a rough July outing — now undefeated with a stellar ERA. The Pirates’ offense exploded too, with Billy Cook having a career day (3 hits, 2 RBIs), Esmerlyn Valdez crushing a two-run homer in the 9th, and Nick Gonzales adding two doubles. This win marks their fifth straight interleague series victory and continues their strong run. Cleveland’s Steven Kwan had two hits, but it wasn’t enough to halt Pittsburgh’s momentum — flipping the script after the Guardians had beaten them in their last series. Cook got things going with a double in the 2nd, then added another RBI in the 6th after a throwing error. The Pirates head to New York to face the Yankees, while the Guardians head to Minnesota.
