Mitch Keller Pitches Well in Pirates Loss

After winning 13-3 in the series opener, the Pittsburgh Pirates will be looking to win the three-game series from the Arizona Diamondbacks on Sunday. That’s because they lost 4-3 on Saturday evening.

Mitch Keller came into the game with two straight scoreless appearances, including a shutout. His scoreless streak ended quickly in this game, but he still had another strong outing.

Keller allowed a first inning homer to Ketel Marte, who was the second batter of the game. He didn’t allow another run until the sixth inning, retiring 16 batters in a row at one point.
