The 23-year-old right-hander scattered three hits on the evening while issuing an uncharacteristic five walks. All of the damage done against him came in the fifth inning on a two-out, two-run double off the bat of Gleyber Torres. Aside from that inning though, Skenes was in complete command. He generated a whopping 21 swings and misses on 105 pitches on the night — 10 of them on his fastball — while posting a strong CSW of 30 percent. Still an inexplicable 4-6 on the season, he’ll bring an impressive 1.85 ERA, 0.88 WHIP and a 106/27 K/BB ratio (102 innings) into Wednesday’s matchup against the Brewers in Milwaukee.

The 31-year-old elected free agency on Friday after he was sent outright to Triple-A Indianapolis, but it sounds like the two sides were eventually able to reach an agreement. The 31-year-old backstop will continue to function as extra catching depth for the Bucs.

The Pirates scored four runs off of Brant Hurter in the top half of the 10th inning on Thursday, the final two coming on a two-out, two-run knock by Kiner-Falefa that seemingly put the game out of reach. With his two-hit attack, the 30-year-old infielder is now hitting .288/.333/.358 with one homer, 17 RBI and nine stolen bases on the season.

Triolo victimized Tigers’ left-hander Tyler Holton for his 422-foot (106.3 mph EV) to straight away center field in the second inning, extending the Pirates’ early lead to 3-0. That would be his only hit in the contest, as he finished the night 1-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts, though he also worked a walk in the 10th inning. On the season, the 27-year-old infielder is slashing a cringe-inducing .179/.276/.308 with three long balls and nine RBI.
