July 6, 2025 8:18 PM : Skenes pitched five scoreless innings while allowing five hits and no walks in a no-decision Sunday at Seattle. He struck out 10.
Analysis: Despite a short 78-pitch outing, the Pittsburgh ace managed to notch his first double-digit strikeout performance of the season. Skenes completely dominated the Mariners lineup to mark his fifth walk-free start of the season while allowing just one extra-base hit -- a Julio Rodriguez double in the third. Skenes now sports a stellar 1.94 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 125:30 K:BB across 116 frames. The 23-year-old was named to his second All-Star team Sunday and is currently scheduled to make his last appearance before the break at Minnesota next weekend.
