Paul Skenes is the greatest Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher I’ve ever seen. He might be the greatest pitcher I’ve ever seen. Yeah, he’s the best pitcher I’ve ever seen.
Skenes wrote his name into MLB history books once against Saturday as he capped off an NL Rookie of the Year-worthy campaign Saturday against the AL’s best team.
Baseball’s most polarizing rookie shut out baseball’s most polarizing franchise through two innings of work in a 9-4 victory against the New York Yankees.
Skenes struck out Juan Soto looking, and Aaron Judge swinging in the first inning and dropped his ERA to an incredible 1.
