• Pirates 2, Cubs 1: A pitcher’s duel gone wrong

Matt Marton-Imagn Images Cade Horton outpitched Paul Skenes, but the Cubs lost anyway. Let’s try to look at the Cubs’ 2-1 loss to the Pirates in 10 innings Friday this way: If there was one game in this series they might have been destined to lose, it was the game where Paul Skenes started for Pittsburgh. On the other hand, the Cubs did have four hits off Skenes and got him out of the game...2025
