## Resource

The Pirates are hitting rock bottom—again—after a bizarre, rulebook-correct call where a runner’s cleat grazed a glove, costing Paul Skenes a win. Meanwhile, the Phillies are lighting up the Mets with Kyle Schwarber’s three homers and Bryce Harper’s cycle, showcasing offensive dominance. While Miguel Vargas’ hot bat is being buried by bad luck, and the Pirates’ snakebite streak continues, the bigger picture shows some pitchers are due for a rebound—because sometimes, baseball’s cruel randomness just doesn’t care about stats.
