PHOENIX (AP) — Paul Skenes pitched shutout ball into the seventh inning, Oneil Cruz hit a two-run homer and the Pittsburgh Pirates romped past the Arizona Diamondbacks 10-1. Skenes allowed four hits, struck out seven and walked none in 6 2/3 innings. He snapped a three-game losing streak with his first win in six starts since April 25 at Dodger Stadium. The reigning NL Rookie of the Year has not permitted more than six hits in any of his 35 starts, a major league record to begin a career. Pittsburgh took two of three from skidding Arizona for its second road series win this season.
