They are the bane of Skenes' existence
-
In his 7th start against the Cardinals Paul Skenes will once again fail to notch a win against them.
If the Cardinals hold on to win (always sketchy and asking a lot with our bullpen) Skenes will be 0-5 in 7 appearances. If they manage to blow the lead he will be 0-4 in 7 starts.
There is no explanation when you consider how bad the Cardinals have been since he broke into the league but it is what it is.

Scouting. Good hitting coach. Former teammates. Take your pick.
Some teams just have your number.

The Cardinals hold on to win 10-5 to complete a 4 game sweep of the Pirates and knock Skenes to 0-5 against the Cardinals.
