Pittsburgh Pirates right-handed starting pitcher Paul Skenes befuddled the Detroit Tigers throughout his outing, leading to the 3-0 shutout series

Detroit Tigers center fielder Parker Meadows hit a double off Pirates ace Paul Skenes on Monday, July 21 — his first extra-base hit since June 22.

Right-handed pitcher Troy Melton’s first MLB outing wasn’t as planned as the 24-year-old was pinned for six runs and the Tigers experienced their third sweep of the season, this time at the hands of the Pirates at PNC Park.

Flaherty, a right-hander for the Detroit Tigers, didn't return to the mound for the fourth inning Monday, July 21, against the Pittsburgh Pirates, replaced by left-handed reliever Dietrich Enns, who completed the next 2⅔ innings. It was another poor start.
