Right-hander Paul Skenes will take the mound Thursday for the Pittsburgh Pirates in a series finale against the Chicago Cubs at PNC Park. The 6:40 p.m. ET start comes as Skenes seeks to end a personal two-game losing streak.
Skenes enters with a 6-4 record and 3.00 ERA this season. He has allowed three or more earned runs in consecutive outings for the first time in his career after recent starts against Philadelphia and Toronto.
