Paul Skenes and Logan Webb surrender 14 earned runs in early game exit

Paul Skenes and Logan Webb allowed a combined 14 earned runs during their respective starts in Tuesday night's matchup between the Pittsburgh Pirates and the San Francisco Giants. Skenes gave up five earned runs over four and two-thirds innings, including a three-run home run to Rafael Devers in the second. Webb struggled significantly more, lasting only two innings while allowing nine earned runs on nine hits and two walks before his removal. The Giants' pitcher exited with the bases loaded in the third, as reliever Braxton Roxby allowed two additional inherited runners to score. Both pitchers entered the contest with uncharacteristic stat lines for the 2026 season, pushing their respective ERAs higher. The Pirates maintain a slim pursuit of a National League Wild Card berth, while the Giants remain 16 games back from the final postseason spot.
