Mick Abel outdueled Paul Skenes to win his major league debut, striking out nine over six innings to lead Philadelphia over the Pittsburgh Pirates 1-0 Sunday for a three-game sweep and the Phillies' 15th win in 20 games.

The Pittsburgh Pirates wasted another Paul Skenes masterclass. It's time for action, and Pirates fans hope that doesn't mean a trade of the best player they've ever seen.
