The Pirates suffered a sweep, with three shutout losses to the Mariners, including 6-0 on July 4 and 1-0 on July 5. This makes it their sixth sweep of the season and fourth on the road, the first time since May 16-18 vs. the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park.

The Mariners conclude their homestand on Sunday against the Pirates with a premier pitching matchup featuring two of baseball’s best young right-handers.

Paul Skenes was lifted after just 78 pitches in five dominant innings in the Pittsburgh Pirates’ 1-0 loss to the Seattle Mariners at T-Mobile Park.
