Cy Young favorite Paul Skenes on the mound for the Pirates, plus the Rockies’ road offense, equaled a predictable mismatch.

Skenes pitched seven scoreless innings against the Rockies, marking the 11th time this season he hasn’t allowed a run in a start. The Pirates are 9-1 when this happens and Skenes has picked up seven of his eight wins on the season when accomplishing this feat.
