Right-handed star pitcher Paul Skenes dominated once again for the Pittsburgh Pirates, who defeated the Philadelphia Phillies at PNC Park, 2-1. The Pirates clinch their first sweep of the season, as they also beat the Phillies 5-4 on walk-off on June 6 and 2-1 on June 7.

Paul Skenes again pitched into the eighth for Pittsburgh before Andrew McCutchen came through with a go-ahead single that inning, helping the Pirates complete a three-game sweep of the Philadelphia Phillies with a 2-1 win.
