Max Fried leads all qualified MLB starters in ERA since the start of the 2022 season.“At the end of the day, I’m not going up against the other pitcher, I’m going against the other lineup,” Fried said of the matchup in a. “You know that runs are probably going to be at a premium. You really to try to hold the other side to a couple runs and just figure out how to do it.”
Skenes flinched first out of the gate when he gave up a solo shot to Jarred Kelenic to lead off the bottom of the first to give the Braves a very early 1-0 lead. The Pirates plated a run against Fried in the top of the fifth when Edward Olivares hit a sac-fly to right, scoring Michael Taylor to tie the game 1-1.
