The Pirates will send Paul Skenes to the mound when they return to PNC Park on Monday night for a matchup against the Nationals.
Pittsburgh took two out of three games in its weekend series at Wrigley Field, beating Chicago on Friday and Saturday before the Cubs overcame a five-run deficit in a 7-6 win on Sunday. Despite that disappointing result, the Bucs are still sitting atop the NL Central standings with a 9-6 record.
Skenes will look to continue his recent run of dominance after allowing just two runs and five hits across his last two starts. Right-hander Cade Cavalli is expected to start for Washington in the first game of a four-game series.
