Former LSU baseball star Paul Skenes was back in action on Wednesday, making a start vs. the Milwaukee Brewers.
Skenes lasted four innings, allowing four hits on four runs and two walks. The right-handed pitcher finished with four strikeouts and 78 pitches before being lifted.
All of the Brewers' runs came in the second inning. Skenes surrendered a leadoff walk, then consecutive singles. An RBI groundout plated the first run, then a double and a fielder's choice also pushed runs across. An RBI single from Christian Yelich plated the frame's final run.
The Pirates fell 4-2 in the series finale. They had trouble with Brewers' pitcher Jacob Misiorowski, who committed to LSU before signing a major league contract as a second-round draft pick. In the third start of his career, Misiorowski threw five scoreless innings and struck out eight.
Despite the lackluster outing, Skenes still leads the National League with a 2.12 ERA and 0.91 WHIP. He also has 110 strikeouts. The former LSU pitcher's next start will likely come during a midweek series against the Saint Louis Cardinals.
