Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes dominated the American League in his start for the National League in the All-Star game.
PITTSBURGH -- Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes started for the National League in the All-Star game and dealt with his opposing American League hitters, allowing no hits and getting out of the inning scoreless.
Skenes then took on Baltimore Orioles shortstop Gunnar Henderson, No. 3 in the MLB with 28 home runs, at No. 2. He forced Henderson to hit a weak ball right back to him, and Skenes would throw Henderson out at first base, played by Bryce Harper of the Phillies. Yankees centerfielder Aaron Judge served as the cleanup hitter at No. 4, as he leads the MLB with 34 home runs and 85 RBIs,
The Pirates drafted Skenes No. 1 overall out of LSU in 2023 and brought him up in May, where he's performed as one of the best pitchers in baseball.
