The loss on Friday night snapped a two-game winning streak for the Pirates and dropped them to 8-13 on the season. They now sit in last place in the NL Central, a game and a half back of the St. Louis Cardinals for fourth place.

The Pirates will start ace Paul Skenes on Saturday as they try and even the series against the Guardians.

Skenes comes into Saturday 2-1 with a 2.96 ERA. He struggled two starts ago as he gave up five runs and six hits against the Cardinals, but he bounced back on Monday when he went six innings and gave up just two runs and three hits in a win against the Washington Nationals.

Skenes has struck out at least six in each of his first four starts this season and he has walked just three batter combined.
