Pirates vs. Mariners: Paul Skenes Looks to Dominate Again
Transcript
00:00Let's take it to Pittsburgh.
00:04The Pirates taking on the Mariners.
00:06Seattle coming into town.
00:08They get Logan Gilbert out there on the hill
00:10and it's the one and only Paul Skeens.
00:12What a scintillating year he's putting together the rookie,
00:15but has failed to get the result in the last four.
00:19So what do we make of this matchup?
00:21Is it all about the Pirates off the back
00:23of the star ace, Paul Skeens?
00:25I'm telling you, like you need a stopper right now
00:27for Pittsburgh.
00:28The sky is falling out there.
00:29Like losing double digit games, it's insanity,
00:32but Skeens should be able to pick up the victory.
00:34Why?
00:34You just saw the Mariners yesterday
00:36go a full nine innings and get one hit yesterday.
00:40Good luck going up against Paul Skeens today.
00:42Even if the Mariners actually project very well
00:45against right-handed pitching over the past 30 days,
00:47but that's average right-handed pitching.
00:49That's not Paul Skeens.
00:50And also, is this a last ditch effort, Dovesy,
00:53that we take a look at Skeens
00:54with a chance to win the Cy Young
00:56as he's also falling in that race?
00:58I expect a big time performance.
01:00How comfortable are you in this game?
01:01Two good pitchers out here,
01:02two lineups that are struggling,
01:04two teams that can't get out of their own way.
01:06Maybe just look at a strikeout prop
01:07from Paul Skeens in this one.
01:09I expect big things from him.
01:10And watch this, Doves.
01:12We'll watch this game in the updates.
01:13Oh, look at that.
01:14The Mariners got five runs on the board
01:15against Paul Skeens in the third inning.
01:17That's sometimes how crazy Major League Baseball is.
01:20When you see that six and a half,
01:21who's getting the seven runs here?
01:23My goodness.
