Summary
Pirates’ ace Paul Skenes is facing a rough patch this season, allowing more earned runs in fewer innings than his dominant rookie year—yet he’s not panicking. After a shaky outing where he left too many pitches over the plate, Skenes admits he’s still finding his rhythm. Manager Don Kelly praises his discipline and work ethic, while also noting the team’s focus on refining his mechanics. A costly error in a key inning further complicated his night, reminding everyone how razor-thin margins can turn a Cy Young winner’s season. Skenes and the coaching staff are laser-focused on course correction, determined to turn things around before the season’s halfway point.
