Mhm, all-time ridiculous inning. It would have caused them to completely fold in previous years, but they came back & won this time. The talent isn't quite there to contend just yet. They've got some real fight in them though, which is a good indicator that they're moving in the right direction & are getting close to opening up their window.
He's not bad. Almost as good as Yamamoto and Imanaga but not quite. He may throw 102 mph but he is extremely wild. Will probably end up with a 3.50-4 ish ERA this year, decent for a rookie but not good enough for ROY.
This was certainly one of the games of baseball and the most pirates game possible. Sell out crowd, rookie first round pitcher, rain delay, bullpen troubles, and the offense some how doing whats needed 😅.
Cubs bullpen masterclass! The Pirates were practically giving us runs on a silver platter and made their bullpen look good at the end. I pray every time they pull out the starter although Steele looked REALLY rusty out there.
Well, it's the first game of many for this promising young athlete. Let's see if things work out for him & The Bucs, only time will tell. Go Cubs Go! ❤🐻⚾
Nice debut for Skenes. Can’t realistically ask for much more. That pirates pens though… at least some actual run support. I know the Buccos need a lot of things, relief pitchers especially, but I’d love to see a big bat come from somewhere. I know I’m dreaming.
as a casual blue jays enjoyer, costing your superstar rookie pitcher the w in his debut by giving up a probably record-breaking number of bases-loaded walks in a singular inning is exactly the type of weird choke i associate with toronto. key difference is that the pirates actually pulled this one out and won it because they had an offensive output
where do i start? We had trouble scoring runs that weren't gifted to us. Their bp was tricky enough to shut us down. I felt helpless watching this train wreck. They got us bad then spotted us a two run lead in the fifth and we still blew it. Rather than draw the walk either Suzuki or Bellenger should have swung for the fences. Cuas was like a blind man out there feeling around for the strike zone, but amazingly he did his job. Two outs and then trouble began for Keegan Thompson. You could feel the confidence draining out of him. Lovelady ... that guy has lost us more games than he's helped us in. This game did not go very far to help me forget about the Cubs getting Ceased. Well, you don't win them all. Sometimes that long fly ball finds the gap, sometimes it doesn't. And tomorrow Hendricks is in. I hope the bats heat up. Hendricks says he wants to help the guys. Going to the bp would help the guys.
A CY Young type season, then 2 seasons the Pirates will be buns, traded for a haul that doesn't pan out, goes to win 3 Cy Youngs with 2 yeams the next 10 years
Pirates are developing him for some other big payroll baseball team like the Yankees, or Astros, or Dodgers, or Giants. Pirates would have to file Chapter 11 signing him to a long term contract.
Or he might just be a bust. Ben Joyce of the Angels threw 105 mph and was a complete bust. Just because you throw 100+ mph it doesn't guarantee you will be a good pitcher.
One of the worst trades in San Diego Padres History. Yasmani Grandal for Matt Kemp. Yasmani has more hits HRs RBIs ,Runs than all the Padres catchers combined since 2015-2023. Derek Norris to Austin Nola.
Skenes looked great to start the game and luckily they managed to pull off the win. That doesn't take away the 6 walks with the bases loaded the bullpen had. That is unacceptable and needs to be addressed.
The first one is always the hardest. Gotta be so nervous. Imo, he did really good and was probably going to go far in that game but pirates coach is going slow with his development, and his arm so he took him out. I’d be excited if I were a pirates fan.
Good outing, but I hope the organization reiterates to him it’s ok to live in the 97-99 range focus on controlling pitches at that speed then you got 100+ later in the game when you need it.
Been watching baseball for over 60 years. Nothing personal against Skenes, but the pitchers who are "can't miss" superstars...usually miss. Brian Taylor, Todd van Poppel and David Clyde come to mind. Do you know who was hyping Greg Maddux? Nobody. Who had Sandy Koufax as, maybe, the best pitcher in history? Nobody. Most thought Bob Gibson was a basketball player. I'm not saying that Skenes won't be successful, but I'm still waiting on Paul Wilson and Pete Smith to deliver on their promise. They should both be in their 60's by now.
OMG Skenes must be so mad that the rest of the pitching staff just blew his debut win by walking in 6 straight runs. Dafuq?! Like, you may have won, but middle relief is fired! That effort also gave Skenes a 3 ERA when he had it limited to 1. Reliever's job is to come in and close that door. WooooOOOO .
The couch should be fired for putting that pitch out!!! I'm realy tired of the pirates doing this. Let them win for one instead of letting a booky run things!!! You can't tell me this game wasn't set up to do that. Good pitching by the rookie.
Most insane baseball game I have ever been to. Sat in the pouring rain the whole rain delay. Added to the moment. Incredible. Bizarre. Pirates WIN!
Giving up 7 runs via 6 bases loaded walks and a hit is the most pirate thing I ever seen
Beyond embarrassing and shameful
I don't know the last time I've seen something even close to this
Mhm, all-time ridiculous inning. It would have caused them to completely fold in previous years, but they came back & won this time. The talent isn't quite there to contend just yet. They've got some real fight in them though, which is a good indicator that they're moving in the right direction & are getting close to opening up their window.
and all wc2 outs lmao
Man this dude is a machine he did the same at LSU best of luck to him the rest of the way ....
What a wild game I had to worry about tornadoes and the pirates throwing a strike
I'm sorry but if you thought Paul Skenes did bad this game then you are crazy. Lot of show for the future of what we all hope an injury free career.
For sure. The relief pitcher did him dirty too.
Literally no one was saying that, so why your comment?
@@jessegarnertheopinionated544fr you can’t be walking that many batters in a row. Most batters walked in one inning in 65 years.
He's not bad. Almost as good as Yamamoto and Imanaga but not quite. He may throw 102 mph but he is extremely wild. Will probably end up with a 3.50-4 ish ERA this year, decent for a rookie but not good enough for ROY.
4 IP 3 ER… yes that’s a bad outing
Crazy game Skenes debut and Pirates giving up 6 runs in one inning via walk
This was certainly one of the games of baseball and the most pirates game possible.
Sell out crowd, rookie first round pitcher, rain delay, bullpen troubles, and the offense some how doing whats needed 😅.
the freaking 2 hr rain delay lmao.
When the Cubs are in town more tickets are sold in most stadiums
Chicago scored 9 runs and 6 of them were from walks
If some of them were hits would have been more runs
Hope to see Skenes do well in the majors as an Astros fan, I have a feeling he's gonna be great, congrats on the win Pirates
Cubs bullpen masterclass! The Pirates were practically giving us runs on a silver platter and made their bullpen look good at the end. I pray every time they pull out the starter although Steele looked REALLY rusty out there.
Their bullpen is an absolute dumpster fire!
O’Neil hit a 119 mph double and it wasn’t shown😭😭
bc that’s normal for him, daily occurrence
Too many Skenes highlights
Most underrated player in baseball ngl
@@Dewy_877because hes been less then average his wholencarreer
Alright buddy… you wanna spit on it already🤣
The best way to describe myself about this game, CRUSHED 😫
After the 101mph tornado storm, those Pirates deckhands went on strike instead of throwing strikes.
This Cubs season has been batshit crazy so far. If they can get healthy they might actually be good
AAA to the bigs is a HUGE jump. Skenes pitched pretty damn well, and he’s just going to get better
Pretty well he was pretty much unhittable
Well, it's the first game of many for this promising young athlete. Let's see if things work out for him & The Bucs, only time will tell. Go Cubs Go! ❤🐻⚾
How did we score 9 runs but still lose 😭
And now we gotta wait another 40 games for mastrubuoni to have another hit
Let skenes get comfy he gonna start being a beast, and the homers the buccos we’re hitting today came clutch 👌☄️
I'm a rays fan here to watch Paul Skene let's go
“Ghostbusters clouds” I dig it.
Pirates pirating all over the place, and somehow win. Call it the Skene's effect
As always, Chicago's Bullpen woes... SmH...
On to the next game, Win or Lose...
*GO CUBS NATION*
Nice debut for Skenes. Can’t realistically ask for much more. That pirates pens though… at least some actual run support. I know the Buccos need a lot of things, relief pitchers especially, but I’d love to see a big bat come from somewhere. I know I’m dreaming.
Skenes bringing the heat.
5局上 太扯了 毛毛的 好險5局下有打逆轉 我愛死他了 上半收
Lmao the relievers ruined it all😭
i’m glad yasmani got that HR after those walks 😭🤣

The shot choices in this game are like Prisoner of Azkaban vs. all the other HP movies. iykyk

Bro Skenes was one of the best starts I’ve ever seen
Dang! I was so very much hoping that fly ball by Morel in the first would carry out.
YEAUX GOOD TO SEE PITTSBURGH DOING BASEBALL AGAIN
Wow, what a game....Go Pirates
Personally excited for Skenes to do well, but as a pirates fan, we all know…. HE GONE! 🏴☠️
A CY Young type season, then 2 seasons the Pirates will be buns, traded for a haul that doesn't pan out, goes to win 3 Cy Youngs with 2 yeams the next 10 years
Pirates are developing him for some other big payroll
baseball team like the Yankees, or Astros, or Dodgers,
or Giants. Pirates would have to file Chapter 11 signing
him to a long term contract.
😂better get him a contract as early as they could
Or he might just be a bust. Ben Joyce of the Angels threw 105 mph and was a complete bust. Just because you throw 100+ mph it doesn't guarantee you will be a good pitcher.
Nice dinger from Cutch. Dude is still out there contributing.
One of the worst trades in San Diego Padres History. Yasmani Grandal for Matt Kemp. Yasmani has more hits HRs RBIs ,Runs than all the Padres catchers combined since 2015-2023. Derek Norris to Austin Nola.
Grandal was great for the Brewers too, I was sad to see him go. Hopefully he tears it up with the Pirates, even if they are a rival
1イニング6押し出し四球とか初めて見たわ!それで負けるのもスゴ過ぎ!w
1:49 Skenes thought that Morel ball might be out.
If skenes works on his control and command he will be great
Welcome To The Pittsburgh Paul
Other than skenes...our pitching SUCKED this game jesus Christian
Skenes looked great to start the game and luckily they managed to pull off the win. That doesn't take away the 6 walks with the bases loaded the bullpen had. That is unacceptable and needs to be addressed.
The best 6.75 ERA performance I've seen yet
Paul mf Skenes man. Maybe not the best start but he was still so impressive
The first one is always the hardest. Gotta be so nervous. Imo, he did really good and was probably going to go far in that game but pirates coach is going slow with his development, and his arm so he took him out. I’d be excited if I were a pirates fan.
they hype some of these guys waaaayyyy too much.
Paul Skenes is great.
Wow, I've never seen four walks in a row with the bases loaded since Little League!
Same as the start for Scott with the Mets. Relief pitching blows the game.
his era from tonight definitely isn't his fault. Reliever did not do his job at all
This game aged me by ten years.
The 5th inning you mean
Ur telling me he had a 0.99 ERA in AAA
Big jump up from AAA to the Bigs. Especially against a team that is swinging it well this year.
This game shook his nerves. I’d be pretty excited if I were a pirates fan
He's gonna be a beast! Excited for this rotations future with Keller, Jared Jones & now Mr Luvvy Dunn
He now has a 6 plus ERA in the Majors tho!!! His start wasnt impressive at all!!
@@eddiegainz1673they credited him with two runs that were on base and then another pitcher walked in those runs. not his fault
Just question .why did the guy touch his hand after the inning end?
just the pirates doing pirates things
It looked like Skenes may have tweaked something in his arm. You can see him trying to shake it out in the 5th inning.
Dam poor Skenes does a great job for the relievers to blow the lead. With walks. Even more painful.
Good outing, but I hope the organization reiterates to him it’s ok to live in the 97-99 range focus on controlling pitches at that speed then you got 100+ later in the game when you need it.
Cruz must have read my comment two weeks ago 😂 good for him
Paul gonna be at yankee in 3 years
Better not be...or a dodger
doubt
I love baseball

Can't wait for him to be a Yankee In 6 years😅
Nah, he'll be a Brave
Crazy game.
There are some dangerous bats on the Pirates.
It’s a Cruz missile! 💥
The Battle of the Bullpens 🤣
OMG Skenes must be so mad that the rest of the pitching staff just blew his debut win by walking in 6 straight runs. Dafuq?! Like, you may have won, but middle relief is fired! That effort also gave Skenes a 3 ERA when he had it limited to 1. Reliever's job is to come in and close that door. WooooOOOO .
Even if they didn’t blow it he wasn’t getting the win. You gotta pitch 5 complete innings to get a win
Grandal the Cub killer! Doesn’t matter if it was with the Dodgers, Brewers, White Sox or now the Pirates, dude always slugs against the Cubbies.
the bases loaded walks are head scratchers
over the years Pirates v. Cubs
eq. Cràaaaaaaaaaazy
Now that's baseball.
🐸
Dude was in college when Jackson Holliday was in 8th grade
That left fielder could have robbed that homerun easily. Looked like he gave up on it.
And the Pirates will do Pirate things. When Paul could be the Ace of our future he’ll be traded for peanuts and 2 new ski lifts at 7Springs.
Is Skenes the next Strasburg?
Could be as long as he doesn't get injured so much like he did
Yeah… Cubs getting the next game Hard 🔥
I bet Counsell wished he still had his brewers bullpen. Coming from a Cubs fan.😢
720P? Are you joking me MLB? You have 4K cameras and the best you can do is 720P?
This mate will be legend. He will be better than clemens,felix hernandez,pedro martinez
Why is both bullpens’ bad? Especially my cubs. So many games blown late.
Great player bro mlb
Do you think Tyler fits Brian O'Connor and Tim's hiding it?
dude is a baller
Skenes followed by... Nicolas.. lol nice try but no cigar there.
This guy is good, just gotta be healthy, im worried about that arm the way he pitched 100mph+🔥
So hard being a cubs fan
Harder to be a Pirate fan you know
MASTERBALOGNA IS THE BEST NAME IN BASEBALL!
Wouldn't be surprised if Skenes turns out to be a Cy Young type of pitcher that can win a world series...
On another team
Kinda cool how he's donating 100$ for every K to the Gary Sinise foundation!!
I'm a new fan to the great game of baseball. What does the letter K stat. stand for❓
5:54. Bryan shoulda had that!
Thought the same
Killer debut from Skenes! Glad the Pirates ultimately prevailed
Never in my life have I seen so many walk in runs in a row , maybe a record ? I Hate the pitch count method , seen so many games lost that way .
I've got Skenes Fever baby!
Way to go Paul Skenes! Buccos win...Raise that WET Jolly Roger!
Next Mark Prior, who will end his career early with elbow issues
"Of Course, Obviously Thats Livvy Dunne(Paul Skenes GF), His Wife Karen......" Wait What!?🤣🤣
How did we lose this???????
Back To Back Homers
Start at 5.00
Skenes did fine. But the walks still have my stomach in knots.
The couch should be fired for putting that pitch out!!! I'm realy tired of the pirates doing this. Let them win for one instead of letting a booky run things!!! You can't tell me this game wasn't set up to do that. Good pitching by the rookie.
