The Cubs couldn’t break through against Skenes, but they did at least make him throw 95 pitches in five innings. Alas, getting him out of the game only did so much good, as they were limited to one run afterwards, and the Pirates won in extras to improve to 7-8 in Skenes’s starts. Skenes himself remained 4-6 after departing a scoreless game. He’s allowed one or no runs in seven straight starts, yet he’s 1-2 during that span.

After struggling in his first two starts last month, Burrows has been very good twice and adequate once in three starts in June, leaving him with a 4.24 ERA overall. The eight strikeouts today topped his previous high by two, and he went without a walk for the second time in his five starts. He’ll make his next start at home against the Rangers.

The homer off Matthew Boyd, which produced the only run of the game for the hapless Pirates, was McCutchen’s 326th of his career, moving him past Willie Horton, Jermaine Dye and Justin Upton for 127th place all-time. Next up are Shawn Green and Mo Vaughn at 328.

That explains why he was moved to the 60-day injured list on Friday. That determination was made after a follow-up examination with Dr. Neal ElAttrache. It sounds like Rodriguez is going to be sidelined well into the second half of the season and can probably be dropped in any season-long leagues.
