While all the talk for the Pirates has been about Paul Skenes recently making his major league debut, it's rookie pitcher Jared Jones who continues to make history in his rookie season.
The win moves the Pirates to 20-25 on the year while the loss drops the cubs to 25-20. Pittsburgh has built some nice momentum heading into Friday's matchup, which features the second career start for rookie Paul Skenes.
However, it's another rookie for the Pirates who is also continuing to wow people. Former top prospect Jared Jones got the win on Wednesday, going 6.0 innings by allowing three runs. It was another quality start for Jones, who is now 3-4 on the year with a 2.89 ERA. He also continues to make history in his first year.
