Paul Skenes Ends Seven-Start Winless Drought, Henry Davis Homers in Pirates’ 1-0 Victory over Angels
Henry Davis homered and four relievers protected the shutout as Pittsburgh won its fourth straight series, officials said.
- On Sunday, Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes earned his first victory since July 19, throwing 5 1/3 scoreless innings to defeat the Los Angeles Angels 1-0. Skenes allowed four hits and struck out two against the team he grew up rooting for in Orange County.
- Henry Davis hit his ninth home run in the third inning, providing the game's only run. Angels pitcher Walbert Urena suffered a tough-luck loss despite throwing his first career complete game and allowing only three hits.
- A critical defensive play in the fifth inning preserved the lead when Zach Neto was thrown out at home. Second baseman Brandon Lowe's relay throw from center fielder Oneil Cruz cut down Neto following a Mike Trout double.
- Gregory Soto, Carmen Mlodzinski, Camilo Doval, and Mason Montgomery finished the five-hitter for Pittsburgh. Montgomery earned his 10th save, helping the Pirates win four straight series for the first time since 2024.
- The Halos lost for the 11th time in 13 games and travel to Boston to face the Red Sox on Monday. Pittsburgh remains off Monday before starting a three-game series against the Central-leading White Sox in Chicago on Tuesday.
